I know he left Jeresulam cause he was rejected by his own and I am just curious. Also was Jerusalem his his home town? Did Jews originate from Jerusalem as well?

Jesus was born in bethlehem
Jesus was from and grew up in Nazareth.
Jesus was crucified right outside of Jerusalem on a hill called "golgotha" aka "the place of the skull".
All these cities and places are in Israel. In the Old testament, God gave Israel to all the Jews as part of the covenant that God made with them.
You can google golgotha to learn more about and its exact location. There is now a Church built right on the spot where it is believed that Jesus was crucified.

According to the Bible (Christian historical text), Jesus died just outside the city walls of Jerusalem at a place I believe is called today...Gogatha (spelling probably wrong). His town of birth was Bethlehem but the town in which he spent his childhood years and probably early adult years was the town of Nazereth. Jews originated from an area called Judah, which was named by the tribe of Israel that settled in that location.
All of these areas are located today just a few miles apart. If you look at a current map of Israel, you will be surprised at how really small it is to most other countries of the world. That is one of the reasons that people believe that Christ is real. It is hard to imagine how a country so physically small could possible be such a thorn in the side of the entire world when it comes to peace. I am not putting down Israel...on the contrary...but I do find it remarkable in its influence.

Where Did Jesus Die

Jesus died on a cross in Jerusalem and was buried in a donated tomb. He was born in Bethlehem and was often referred to as Jesus of Nazareth, so it is safe to say his home town was there. Jerusalem became the central city of the descendants of Abraham after their exodus from Egypt, where they were used as slave labor. That city is in the land God promised to give to them, the land of Israel.
You can get a pretty good idea of how it all fits together by reading the Gospel according to Matthew or the Gospel according to Luke.

Jerusalem. Nazareth was His home town but He was born in Bethlehem near Jerusalem. Jews originated from a tribe from the son of Jacob,Judah, and Jacob was descended from Abraham who came from Mesopotamia( in the area about modern Iraq). Israel is the Jewish homeland,especially Judea.

Maybe just maybe a little study on your part would preclude such disconnected questions.
