Depends on the type of accident, but generally as far away from the point of impact with the bus as possible.

On balance of likelihood that's going to be the back of bus.

High speed rear end is unlikely for a city bus. Most likely the bus rear ends someone because it can't stop in time, or a head-on collision of some kind on a narrow road.

im talking, which spot on the bus, is statistically least likely to get you injured in a crash, level of specificity. Near back of the bus is a pretty good contender though.

That's what I meant too, so yeah. Other than the driver's seat of course.

Above the rear tyre on the side of the bus away from oncoming traffic.

Being someone who always over thinks things I used to sit there for my school commute. So I was less than impressed when the bus dropped that wheel off a cliff on a windy road.

Managed to drag back onto the road at least so I didn't get to test the survivability of my seating arrangement in free fall.

you would think it's simple, but the second you start to consider things, it starts to make less sense, notably, i think the most important aspect would be your bus route. Taking a lot of turns that expose you to potential side collisions is objectively worse, than not.
