Our galaxy is part of the Local Group which consists of more than 30 other galaxies.

Earth is located in the Milky Way galaxy. Its address within the Milky Way is estimated to be about 27,000 light years away from the galactic center, in one of the spiral arms of the galaxy known as the Orion Arm or Local Arm.
it all depends from where you are asking. in general, earth is fixed around the sun, so the sun's space address is more useful. if you know that the sun is in the Orion arm of the milky way galaxy, then you can see that earth is the third planet from the sun, and 1 AU from the sun defined as astronomical unit the earth-sun distance.
we are never fixed in one constellation as we move through space, but from our closest neighbors(Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Procyon etc), we (the Sun) appears as a 1st magnitude star in the Orion constellation or there abouts.

The Solar System (which includes Earth) is located in one of the spiral arms of the Milky Way galaxy.
The Milky Way, parts of which we can see from Earth curving around us.
if the Milky way galaxy has roughly 100 billion stars in it like scientist believe. and the odds of this happning are one in one million. when you do all the math it works out to be 10000 earths in our solar system. but that's only if there really is one earth in a million stars. its almost impossible to know for certain

That is called a globular cluster.
