To install to my own directory I can use
pip install --user package Alternatively I can use
conda install package
How do I ask conda to install to my home directory since conda does not take a --user flag?

You can install pip in the current conda environment with the command conda install pip , as discussed in Using pip in an environment. If there are instances of pip installed both inside and outside the current conda environment, the instance of pip installed inside the current conda environment is used.
Because Conda introduces a new packaging format, you cannot use pip and Conda interchangeably; pip cannot install the Conda package format. You can use the two tools side by side (by installing pip with conda install pip ) but they do not interoperate either.
The fundamental difference between pip and Conda packaging is what they put in packages. Pip packages are Python libraries like NumPy or matplotlib . Conda packages include Python libraries (NumPy or matplotlib ), C libraries ( libjpeg ), and executables (like C compilers, and even the Python interpreter itself).
In these cases, using pip only after all other requirements have been installed via conda is the safest practice. Additionally, pip should be run with the “--upgrade-strategy only-if-needed” argument to prevent packages installed via conda from being upgraded unnecessarily.
I don't think it's possible. Use virtual environments (conda create).
