Safe Location Suggestions

I am looking into buying a "real" safe (as real as I can justify spending). However I don't have many options on where to put it and need opinions.

Here are my options:

- Garage in the middle of a wall. Humidity, temperature changes, the fact my wife never remembers to close the garage door, and not being able to wedge it in a corner are all concerns.

- Upstairs in the corner of our bedroom. It would be nice that I can shove the side opposite of the hinges into a corner. Concerns include getting it up the stairs and if the floor collapses in a fire. I'm wondering if that last concern matters. By the time the fire is bad enough to make the floor collapse, the safe is probably already toast. Anyone with home fire experience who knows? I also need to make sure the floor can support 1000lbs.

Any recommendations?
