In which town do the Gospels say Jesus was born?

The answer

Bethlehem (Matthew 2:1; Luke 2:4-7). Both nativity accounts agree on the town, even as they get there by very different routes.

Why it’s interesting

Matthew's family already lives in Bethlehem and later moves to Nazareth; Luke's starts in Nazareth and travels to Bethlehem for a census. Same destination, two different journeys.
