Hello,
Before I start replacing my brakes, I wanted to make sure this was a safe place to place my jack stands. I jacked the car from the rear jack point right under the doors and placed my jack stand in the picture shown. I tried jacking up the front jack adapter first so I can place the stand at the rear jack adapter, but my stands are kind of tall and the driver side tires were being compressed too much for my liking. Just wanted to make sure my stands are at a safe location since I don't want to die...... yet. Thank you!
Sure. I prefer closer to the wheel for example under the lower control arm outer pivot.
Put the jack under the cast knuckle if accessible.
Thank you for the recommendation! However, I am not too familiar with where that all is. Could you possibly provide a picture showing the exact locations?

No problems with that location for the jack stands but as chassis said I also prefer to put it under the outer pivot (under the actual control arm part that''s just a bit closer to the wheel).
