I'd like to run for mayor of my city, but I don't know here to start. Can anyone run? What qualifications do I need?

Many cities have regulations on who is eligible to run for political office.  They are usually based on legal and residency requirements, such as “must be an eligible voter”, “must be a resident of the city for at least a year” or “must be a citizen of the United States”.  Your city’s regulations might have additional requirements, like “must be over 21 years of age” or “must not have any criminal records”.  What city do you live in, and what kinds of regulations are in place?
