I'm trying to add new fields in user profile (like address) I've edited "wp_admin/user-edit.php" and the new profile field are added in the database "wp-usermeta". Why?
I want to add them to "wp-users", is it possible?

Sure you can do what you want but it's a better strategy to add those files to usermeta so that future upgrades don't cause potential problems.
Look at how some of the plugins do it:
