Recent evidence suggests that the Milky Way Galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy. This type of galaxy features a central bar-like structure with spiral arms extending from it. The Milky Way's structure has been inferred based on observations of its stars and gas distribution.

How thick is the bulge of the milky way?

Recent evidence suggests that the Milky Way is a barred galaxy, and does not have a bulge in the classical sense. One estimate for the thickness of the central part of the Galaxy is ca. 16.000 ly. But if I were you, I would not put too much stock in this answer: astronomers are still learning new things about our galaxy every day, and the figure may well double - or halve - come next month.

What does recent evidence suggest is at the center of your galaxy?

Recent scientific theories suggest that there is a supermassive (also called supergiant) black hole at the core of our Milky Way, as well as other large galaxies such as the Andromeda Galaxy. Theory suggests that there is a supermassive (or perhaps regular-sized for small galaxies) black hole at the center of every galaxy, but that is not certain, and there could be more changes in the future (other contributors please feel free to edit this based on new theories created in the future).
