Electrons in the electron cloud of an atom are located at specific energy levels. We cannot say with certainty exactly where the electron is physically located at any given moment, and that's because electrons can be at different physical locations at any instant of time. There are quantum mechanical reasons for this, and just one example of the "variability" of location of an electron is quantum mechanical tunnelling.
