Bethlehem is not a town in Jerusalem, as it is located a few miles south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is in the nation of Israel and Bethlehem is in the area known as the West Bank - they are a short drive apart and separated by a security zone.
Both Biblical Bethlehem and Nazareth are located are in Israel. Also (for what it's worth,) there is a city of Bethlehem and a village of Nazareth located about 6 miles apart in NE Pennsylvania (US).
Jesus only spent a few years in Bethlehem he spent most of his childhood in Nazareth apart from two years which he spent in Egypt. The Bible doesn't say much about Jesus' childhood, and nothing about really about what it was like for him in Bethlehem. All we are told is that Mary and Joseph had to hide Jesus in Egypt because King Herod wanted Jesus killed, which was the reason for them leaving.
Jesus was born in Bethlehem, and his family had to flee to Egypt. Then, they went back to Jerusalem and was raised there.
