See the section "UNIT FILE LOAD PATH" in systemd.unit(5) for a detailed
overview of the paths systemd looks at for unit files. From there you can see
that you can also put user units in your home directory under ~/.config/
systemd/user/, which is what I do (although pretty much all software I use now
provides its own user units, so I don't have much in there now). Of course,
if you prefer /etc/ that is also fine and the units will be available to all
users (so the answer is: /etc/systemd/user/ is for user units installed
system-wide *by the administrator*).
