The New Testament doesn't tell us where, we can only assume. Jesus was in Galilee, more precisely in the town called "his" (Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 9) when he met a tax collector named Matthew. The town was Capernaum and Matthew became one of Jesus´s followers. We don´t know if Matthew was born there, but we can assume he was from Galilee.
