Well, I doubt it's Earth proper.

However, there is a moment where Twilight is observing the Horsehead Nebula in a telescope, which can only be seen through telescope within our galaxy, meaning that Equestria's world is, in fact, located in the Milky Way somewhere. However, it doesn;t seem to share the same Solar System. I bet it's in the same Solar System as Tamriel.
