There is not "a" black hole, but many of them. The nearest known black hole is at a distance of several thousand light-years, but it is likely that there are others closer by: only black holes that are very near of a partner (in a binary system) are easily found.

About as far as Earth or the Sun is.
No. The black hole at the center of the galaxy is too far away to affect earth.
The closest black hole from Earth is V4641 Sgr, which is 1,600 light-years (100,000,000 AU) away.
26,000 light years.
There are many black holes in the universe .Scientists believe that there might be a black hole in the centre of our Milky Way galaxy which is about 25,000 light years from earth, and that that is why it rotates about its axis.
Just about as far as a black hole is from Earth, or from the Sun. The nearest known black hole is at a distance of about 3000 light-years; the distances within the Solar System are insignificant in comparison.
Very small. Earth has so far survived this for ca. 4-5 billion years; also, the closest known black hole is at a distance of about 3000 light-years.
No. The nearest black holes to Earth are many light years away, much to far to affect us.
Yes, there is a very large black hole at the center of our galaxy. It has a mass of about three million suns and is very far from Earth at a distance of about 24,000 light-years. Huge black holes are thought to occur naturally at the center of most large galaxies and many have already been detected. The black hole which lies at the center of our galaxy is much too far away to be of any danger to Earth.
The question makes no sense. Altitude has nothing at all to do with black hole formation. "Altitude" really only has any significant meaning in terms of Earth and humans, and it is as far as we know absolutely impossible to "make" a black hole at any altitude.
It is so far impossible to determine the makeup of a black hole.
The nearest black hole to Mercury is about 1600 light years away.
