best way to read a file in Spring Boot

I have a spring boot application that currently runs in embedded Tomcat. I have a file, states.csv, that I want to parse on startup and seed my states database table (I tried via liquibase but that refuses to work).

I put the file in resources/main/ and that appears to work fine. My question is, if I decided against embedded Tomcat in the future (say moving to AWS or a regular Tomcat), is this still the best location to keep files for use?

I don't want to code myself into a corner if there is a better way to do this.
