I received a 1099-k from Airbnb this year for the first time.  My propoerty is in one state but I live full time in another state.  The state listed in box 6 on my 1099-k reflects the state that I live in.  Should it instead reflect the state the property is located in, where the Income was actually collected from? Or does it matter?

The 1099-K issuer reports the payments to you, so your state would be correct- as opposed to if you got a 1099-MISC for Box 3 Rents, the state would be the location of the property.  It probably does not make a difference because it up to the taxpayer to report the income to the correct state even if the form is incorrect.
