The jet stream is thought to be in or near the tropopause. The tropopause is not an atmospheric layer, rather it's the boundary between the troposphere (the lowest layer where most weather happens) and the stratosphere (the next higher layer).

∙ 10y agoThe jet stream can be found anywhere from 23,000 to 25,000 feet up to just over 50,000 feet. They are usually found in the vacinity of the tropopause, the layer between the troposphere and the stratosphere, but can also be in either the troposphere or stratosphere.
