A galaxy doesn't have a clearly-defined edge, just as Earth's atmosphere doesn't have a clearly-defined edge. That is to say, Earth's atmosphere gradually gets thinner when you go further away from Earth; in a similar way, the star density will gradually get less when you go away from a galaxy.

How far is the nearest edge of the galaxy from earth?

Since our galaxy is about 100,000 light-years side to side and we are about 30,000 light-years from the centre of our galaxy then by dividing 100,000 by 2 making it 50,000 and then minus 30,000 then it estimates we should be 20,000 light-years from the nearest edge of our galaxy.
