15. There is no legal requirement to live in the district

No person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the age of twenty five years, and been seven years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that state in which he shall be chosen.

Those are the only requirements listed in the Constitution.
