Many Scholars believe he must of been in his thirties.
Here is a quote from a commentary
"The word youth in the ancient Greek was "Used of grown-up military age, extending to the 40th year" (Lock, cited in Earle). It seems that Timothy was about 30 years old at this time; but Paul was around 70, so youth is a relative thing."
