Answer:
In most states, a person who is 17 can move out after graduating high school, but they may still be considered a minor until their 18th birthday. It's important to check the specific laws in your state regarding the rights of minors. Generally, once a person turns 18, they are legally an adult and can make decisions about where to live without parental consent.
