Well, here the domain is wordpress.com; subdomain is mywebpage.wordpress.com
You can simply access it as mywebpage.com
If you try accessing it as http: // www . mywebpage.wordpress.com then it will redirect you to Wordpress website and not your website.
Your question:- who is the host and where is it?
You cannot locate your host on the blog by default. However, if you want it to be mentioned on the blog then you can change the permissions for Footer in WP-Admin area and update the script.
If you are unable to locate this or make necessary changes then you can contact the local web developer and he/she can help you with running the Wordpress blog.
If I get my own dedicated server, would my url change?
It is not an easy task to own self Data center. However, if you owned one, there will not be any change in your url
