He was from Lystra which was a colony of the Roman Empire. It is unclear whether or not he was an actual Roman citizen. Roman citizenship could be obtained by one of several means: inheriting it at birth from parents who were citizens (Timothy's dad was Greek and his mother was Jewish(Acts 16:1); service to the empire, or by purchase.

Ephesus, i think but check The Bible and you will find the answer. i recommend that you don't take my word for it and you intervene and study the bible to find the answer . i hope this will open a gate to your heart to want to study the bible for your self because JESUS is coming again and very soon so we must prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus Christ OUR LORD AND SAVIOR.

Another thought:

According to the Bible, Timothy was a young man living in Lystra when Paul came through on his preaching tour, so most likely was born in that area as well, though the Bible doesn't say specifically.

(Acts 16:1-2)
