+# Find The Data Directory
+
+Where does postgres store all of the data for a database cluster? Well, in
+its data directory. Where exactly that data directory is can depend on how
+the database cluster was setup. Postgres can tell you right where to look,
+though. Within `psql`, run
+
+```sql
+> show data_directory
+```
+
+Postgres will output the absolute path of the data directory.
