Android SDK Installation Folder on OS X

Any best practices/recommendations on the installation folder for the Android SDK? Following http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html on OS X and Step 2. "...unpack it to a safe location on your machine..." makes no sense at all for me coming from Windows.

I also found it in the gradle properties of my project:

  1. Expand Project
  2. local.properties for gradle SDK
  3. Even tells you location of SDK with path, time stamp and location
