Gandalf does not reside exactly anywhere in Middle-earth, but is a roamer type. He stays a while in Rivendell, sometimes in Minas Tirith, maybe in Bree, a spot of time in the Shire, a glass of duration at Edoras, a sip of span at Lorien, but he seems to always be on the move. Originally he came from the far west in Valinor, and after the fall of Sauron that is where he returned to.

They were close to him, and knew that something was afoot, but not knowing what that was, they had Sam spy on him. (In the book) In the movies, they knew because Sam was roped into it without a choice by Gandalf, and Merry and Pipin knew only beause they ran into him, and desired to help when the saw that danger was following him.
Frodo is actually sitting a ways back in the cart from Gandalf, but because the seats they are on are not actually shown and compared, and the side of the cart is the same, the audience gets the effect that Frodo is just smaller, and not actually sitting back.
