Electrons in an atom are found moving around the nucleus. They are located in regions of space called electron shells or orbitals, which surround the central nucleus that contains protons and neutrons. While electrons are indeed attracted to the positively charged protons in the nucleus, they do not occupy fixed positions and are instead found in specific energy levels or cloud-like distributions around the nucleus.
