As close to the batteries as possible.

You will have some high-current 12V wiring. It's expensive and you need to kee the losses as low as possible, so keep those wires short if you can.

He didn't specify electron-type. Are they alternating all around; or are they taking a more direct approach?

RV campsites usually have shore power hookup on drivers side.

+1 on keeping wires from batteries to electrical distribution to save cost and reduce voltage drop.
