The local repository cache is by default stored in ~/.m2/repository In the users or global settings this default can be changed to some other location. (See <localRepository> in http://maven.apache.org/settings.html#Simple_Values)
Keep in mind that the cache is not concurrent safe, and is definitely not designed to be shared by multiple users as it can and does get used to store a user's temporary build artifacts if they do "mvn install" Our recommendation is that each user has their own cache, and if there is a strong likelyhood of a user running multiple concurrent builds of the same or similar sets of artifacts then those builds should be using their own cache... e.g. a CI server should have a separate cache for each build job.
