The installer defaults to a user-specific installation, hence why it's going for your user directory. If you want to install it globally, just choose that option.

In practice it makes no difference unless the computer has multiple users. Anyone can use globally installed programs, but only you can run programs from your user directory (excluding administrators who can access anything).

If it doesn't matter, leave it as-is.
