What wordpress folder do I install the bbpress software in?

[kevinjohngallagher]

None.

bbPress is not a WordPress plugin.

I’d love to suggest https://bbpress.org/documentation/installation/

But really, lets accept it’s utterly useless and allow me to point you to http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/ as it actually covers installation in more than 3 steps.
