In most US states your parents will be able to call the police, have you picked up, and brought home. In a few US states, such as Texas or South Carolina, apparently the police will not generally force you to go home at 17.

The age of majority is 18 in most states. That's when you're considered a legal adult and you can make all your own decisions. In some cases a minor can be legally emancipated. You would want to contact a family lawyer in your local area to ask about this.

File a Petition with the court to be released from your parents care. But you have to have grounds to do so. The legal age of majority in the US with the exception of four states is 18. In Alabama and Nebraska it is 19, in Mississippi and Pennsylvania it is 21. You can become legally emancipated in some states through a special legal procedure. Depends on the state.

If this 17 year old lives with parent(s) or guardian(s) then the decision is made by the 17 year old's guardian(s).

Does this 17 year old live alone? Is he legally emancipated? If he is and his name is on the lease, rental agreement, etc., he can do what he wants.

They can, but they cannot legally own it by themselves. They would have to have an adult parent or guardian on the title with them. 17 year olds are minors and minors cannot LEGALLY own property or make legally binding contracts.

Not sure about where you live, to know the laws. In the state of Georgia, you are legal to leave home at the age of 17, and free to live where you want to.
