Where should virtualenvs be created?

Question

I\'m confused as to where I should put my virtualenvs.

With my first django project, I created the project with the command

django-admin.py startproj

If you use pyenv install Python, then pyenv-virtualenv will be a best practice. If set .python-version file, it can auto activate or deactivate virtual env when you change work folder. Pyenv-virtualenv also put all virtual env into $HOME/.pyenv/versions folder.
