Difficult to say. There are no fixed markers in space, no road signs, nothing that everyone might agree on as the "starting point" for measurement. It appears - to US - that the Milky Way Galaxy is here, and almost everything else is moving away from us. (Curiously, the Andromeda Galaxy is coming CLOSER, and we expect Andromeda to collide with the Milky Way in about 4 billion years, more or less.)

People who live on planets orbiting stars in any other galaxy would see the same thing; their galaxy would be in the middle, and everything else would be moving away from THEM.

We're here, and all of our measurements are measured relative to the Earth, or our Sun, or our Galaxy. That's all we know.
