There are three active duty and one reserve division.
1st Marine Div - Camp Pendleton, CA
2nd Marine Division - Camp Leguene, NC
3rd Marine Div - Okinawa, Japan
The reserves are 4th Marine Division and I believe it is based out of Louisiana, but they are spread out all over the country.
Now, there are also Service Support Groups and Air Wings as well.

Someone else has to pipe up, because I am 99% sure that the 5th and 6th divisions are both inactive, and have been for some time; I mean 60 years.

I had the right answer, but tattoo980 beat me to it (a couple answers above). Give him the 10 points.
