Well for us humans that most probably wont ever leave the Earth then gravity is always here and (very nearly) always constant. BUT it isn't constant, gravity is proportional to 1/r^2, where r is the radius from the centre of the Earth (or object). As you can see from this if you get further away from the centre of the earth then gravity diminishes, ie if you are on top of a tall building then gravity will be less than if you where on the ground, therefore gravity is not always constant but unfortunately it only varies by very small amounts and therefore isn't noticeable to us.Now to fully answer your question, YES gravity is always there, even if you where very very far away gravity will still have an affect on you, it is just such a small affect you wouldn't feel it. Even if you where in the middle of space then you may think there is no gravity but actually gravity is an infinite force and so is always there.
