Later versions of the story place them in Nottinghamshire, in Sherwood Forest. But the earliest sources, which I follow in my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles, place them in Yorkshire, on Barnsdale Heath. Since Robin goes to Nottingham, 50 miles away, fairly often, I assume that he grew up there. The real Robyn Hod, who was a servant of Edward II (all this is explained in the Afterword of my novel), lived in Wakefield, which is in Yorkshire.
There is doubt that Robin Hood actually existed. Some contend that it is simply a folktale that has taken on a life of its own due to being repeated over many years.
Either way, at the time of Robin Hood's supposed existence, Sherwood area and much of England was heavily forested. The King (past and present) and the Barons held much forested land kept solely for hunting. The forest laws against poachers were brutal and were carried out without pity.
So, while the people in power had a good life, the lesser people had a struggle to exist, being dependent of the whim of the King, Barons, and landowners.
He does not live anywhere. He was a mythical and fictional character from English history.
