Asteroids mainly orbit between Mars and Jupiter, though some, called NEOs (Near Earth Objects) orbit the sun in eccentric orbits, some even crossing the Earth's orbit. There is also the Kuyper Belt, which starts around Neptune and continues well past Pluto's orbit, and the Oort Cloud, which we think extends as far as 1/2 to 1 light year from the sun. Both are repositories for both comets and asteroids.
