A lot of cities in North America have been continuously inhabited for thousands of years.

Spanish Missions are a pretty good proxy for native American population centers in the southwest. They were built next to existing settlements as their only purpose was to convert the locals. These native American settlements were never abandoned or conquered. They were integrated into the Spanish Empire, then Mexico, then the US.
