Where else would it be? The atmosphere is a compilation of gasses held to the Earth by gravity.
The mass of the atmosphere compresses the atmosphere and it is most compressed near the earth's surface where the entire height of the atmosphere is above it.
The stratosphere isn't on earth's surface, the troposphere is. The stratosphere is the next level of the atmosphere from the troposphere. the atmosphere is about 600 miles or kilometers above earth's surface.
