Zeus "lives" on top of Mount Olympus, the tallest mountain in Greece (2,917m or 9,570ft). Mount Olympus is "home" to all twelve Olympian gods, collectively known as the Olympians or Dodekatheon:

Greek name (Roman name)

Zeus (Jupiter)

Hera (Juno)

Poseidon (Neptune)

Demeter (Ceres)

Dionysus (Bacchus)*

Apollo (Phoebus)

Artemis (Diana)

Hermes (Mercury)

Athena (Minerva)

Ares (Mars)

Aphrodite (Venus)

Hephaestus (Vulcan)

*Hestia was often replaced by Dionysus.

Hades and Persephone were often included in the Olympians, however Hades resides permanently in the underworld and has never visited Mount Olympus. Other gods, such as Heracles and Asclepius, could also be considered Olympians.
