Usually on the basement wall closest to the street, near the meter. Finding it and turning it once a year, before winter, is worth doing while nothing is wrong. A valve that has not moved in twenty years is the one that fails when it is needed.

Water trapped past the valve froze first. A hose left connected holds that water in the last stretch of pipe, and with about 106 freezing nights a year that stretch is the part that splits. The break often sits inside the wall, so it only shows up when the tap is opened in spring.

Ground movement in a freeze can open a joint that was already cracked, and a partly blocked lateral shows up faster when everyone is indoors using more water. A camera run tells you whether it is roots or a break.

Some are. A deep basement under an older house stays fairly stable, but a joist bay against a rim board or a pipe run through an unheated back porch is a different story once frost sets in around November 2.
