10So David was not willing to take the ark of the LORD into the city of David. But David took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
We do not know where the house of Obed-edom was. Presumably it was close to the threshing floor of Nacon. The motive for the decision to take the ark to his home is also not given.
