Each state sets its own laws governing the issuance of search warrants; which means that for each state there are different laws/rules and the answer to this question really does depend on the state jurisdiction under which the warrant is being issued. In general, we are talking about including the name of the person against whom the warrant is being issued with the exact address/location subject to the search, and, most importantly, the specific objects or items that are being searched for. For example, a search warrant mentioning that the objects sought are laptops and documents, will not cover other items found such as furniture or foods.

If you have a warrant you are subject to arrest at any time. You may not want to interact with the state until you have taken care of your warrant.
A warrant can be issued for you regardless of where you live. Residing in a different state does not prevent a warrant being issued for you in the state where you committed the offense.
