The word used in the Amendment was "inhabitant." In contemporary context, that would mean either a resident (taxpayer, primary residence, qualified for in-state tuition, registered to vote there, etc.) or officeholder from that state.
Hillary would be considered a New Yorker even though she just made a short visit there after Bill moved out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue so that she could be crowned "Senator" and move back to her actual residence of Washington D.C.
