That's what is returned by site.getuserbase() (which uses PYTHONUSERBASE, and defaults to ~/.local) PYTHONUSERBASE is the root of Python user-specific paths so it makes sense to have all Python related files in there. This came up with the discussion we had with others at Distutils-SIG read this thread here for more info: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2009-August/012865.html [.]pypirc should probably go there too.
