Yes.  You're a good fit.

IN-1 (let's assume I run as a Democrat for this one)

No... that area is not ripe for anybody who isn't extremely conservative.

Signs point to yes (in a D wave or an open seat).

Yes if you're a Democrat.

Let's say I run in the district I was born in, NJ-9.

You would probably win, but you'd find a way to make it semi-competitive.

Before moving to Lancaster, our family considered moving to Delaware. So, how would I fare in DE-AL?

Yes as a Democrat, no as a Republican or Independent.

What if I ran in the District I was born in, NV-2?

I'm thinking maybe WA-3...trying to think of an area where Republicans wouldn't care so much about social issues.
