## 3.3. Choosing a Directory

FreeBSD documentation is traditionally stored in `/usr/doc/`, and system source code with manual pages in `/usr/src/`. These directory trees are relocatable, and users may want to put the working copies in other locations to avoid interfering with existing information in the main directories. The examples that follow use `~/doc` and `~/src`, both subdirectories of the user's home directory.
