Doesn't really matter. For large bulk tanks, say in excess of 100 gallons, I believe that NFPA says they should be at least 15 feet from any structure. Smaller tanks can be anywhere. I'd keep it near a doorway if possible so you can get to it easily.

It's always a good idea to protect the tank in some fashion so that it isn't always exposed to the elements and the prying eyes of neighbors...
