"​A CREATE command specifying an unqualified object name creates the object
in the current schema (the one at the front of the search path, which can
be determined with the function current_schema)"

​Just omitting "user1" and seeing what happens would be informative. You
should find it does exactly what you think - namely because the default
search_path will cause "user1" to appear first.

Insert is more similar to Select than it is to Create - the object being
inserted into must already exist
