Can you apply for a passport in a different state than the one you're residing in?

Do you have to have an address they can ship it to, or can you just pick it up?

You can apply for the passport from wherever you like in the United States. However you need to provide a ship to address (can be a c/o address) if you apply for the passport through one of the 9,000 passport application centers (post-offices, universities, county court clerks) in the country.
