Whats factual is that our system is on the tail end of the spiral, you'd expect alot of material anomalies would make its way there.

We are actually pretty much at the half-way point (maybe just a little more than halfway) along the Orion Spur -- which itself is halfway along the Sagittarius spiral arm. That puts us generally half way (again, maybe a little more than half way) between the galactic center and the outer edge.

I've seen another chart that describes from my previous expression, somehow your link for the Nasa charts makes me feel much much better.
