Found the solution:

<?php

    $state_posts = array();

    while ($query->have_posts()) {
        $query->the_post();
        $state = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'state', true);
        $state_posts[$state][] = $post;
    }

    wp_reset_query();

    foreach ($state_posts as $state_post => $state_title) {
?>
  <h1 class="state-name"><?php echo esc_html($state_post); ?></h1>
<?php
  foreach ($state_title as $listing => $single_listing) {
    setup_postdata($single_listing);
    $post_id = $single_listing->ID;
    $title = get_the_title($post_id);
    $distance = facetwp_get_distance($post_id);
    $distance = (false !== $distance) ? round($distance, 1) . ' miles away' : '';
    $coords = get_post_meta($post_id, 'location', true);
    $content = get_the_content();
?>
  <div class="post-item" data-title="<?php echo esc_attr($title); ?>" data-latitude="<?php echo $coords['lat']; ?>" data-longitude="<?php echo $coords['lng']; ?>" data-distance="<?php echo $distance; ?>">
    <div class="post-item-content">
      <h2><?php echo $title; ?></h2>
      <?php echo $content; ?>
    </div>
  </div>
<?php
  }
  wp_reset_postdata();
}
