Wherever you want, it's your system.
I'd put it under /home, something like /home/shared, or whatever you want to 
call it.
You could even give it its own partition and mount it on /home/shared, or just 
/shared or wherever.

I wouldn't put it under /usr, or /tmp, or /var, though, but that's just me...
