I always thought it made the most sense that Yoda had chosen to live there by choice and that it was basically his home. Though, with the way the empire hunted down Jedi (according to ANH), I had also always thought that his home was most likely a secret at the very least. Also, I remember thinking that perhaps he had chosen it as his home after fleeing some kind of threat.

The O-OT universe is a sensible place, where 12-year-olds aren't elected as rulers of a planet, where Zen warriors don't have a rulebook, where small children aren't trained in the art of battle, and where you don't die in childbirth from a broken heart.

Total agreement there.
