If you look it up, you will see that the distance from Earth is estimated at 3300 light-years (with an error estimate of 900 light-years). This is well within our own galaxy (the Milky Way), which has a diameter of about 100,000 light-years.

Pressumably, nebulae exist in other galaxies, but the more well-known nebulae are in our own galaxy, because, being closer, we can observe them best.
