Ahto City
Ahto City is the only above water city and capital of Manaan.
Aldera
Aldera was the capital city of Alderaan.
Anchorhead
Anchorhead is a settlement located on the planet Tatooine. It is a few kilometers east of the Lars family home, west of the bustling spaceport of Mos Eisley, and primarily consists of moisture farmers. It is also the location of the Tosche Station.
Anchorhead was founded when the Old Republic sought valuable mineral resources on Tatooine's surface. Fort Tusken and Anchorhead were the first Republic settlements on the planet.
Anchorhead serves as the setting for a series of scenes, deleted from Episode IV, that depict the early life and associations of Luke Skywalker. These deleted scenes, which are found in the novel and comic book versions of Star Wars: A New Hope, collectively form the Anchorhead Story of Star Wars.
In the LucasArts game Star Wars Galaxies, Anchorhead is described as a town in which those sympathetic to the Rebels can walk out in the open, and noted that "If there was any town on Tatooine that was the farthest from Imperial rule, Anchorhead would be the one."
Anchorhead also appeared in the LucasArts video game Knights of the Old Republic, where Anchorhead was the Tatooine landing side for the player's ship, the Ebon Hawk. Anchorhead was depicted as an early mining community and hunting station. It was run by the popular Czerka Corporation and was famous for hunting wraids, swoop racing and mining. The mining operation, however, was not going too well, since Tatooine did not have any valuable resources and the Sand People often terrorized mining activity, discouraging miners. Those miners, or similar ones, would later leave behind the Sandcrawlers that the Jawas now use.

The Galactic Empire eventually established its base of operations here and placed its regional governor in the city's Main Hall. It is featured prominently in the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies (SWG).

Iziz
Iziz is the largest city on Onderon, a fictitious planet in the Star Wars universe.
Iziz is a city with large walls built to keep dangerous beasts from attacking the native Onderonians. After some time, a Sith Lord named Freedon Nadd arrived, bringing the dark side to Onderon. He successfully proclaimed himself king, and his rule was so firm that hundreds of years later, all the ruling families of Onderon would be descended from him.
Iziz used to throw out criminals into the wild to be destroyed by the beasts as a judicial punishment; but over time the criminals learned to control and tame the beasts. They would even form a rival city called "Modon Kira" (under, and named after, the beast lord Modon Kira). From this city, they waged war on Iziz and the ruling family, in a prolonged series of conflicts known as the Beast Wars. Eventually, Jedi Knights were dispatched to mediate a settlement, but they, under Ulic Qel-Droma, ended up deposing the ruling couple, Queen Amanoa and Ommin.
Five years after the Jedi Civil War, Iziz was thrown into an internal civil war of its own when a power struggle within the Onderonian royal family erupted. The planet and city were split between Queen Talia and her cousin General Vaklu when the uprising began. The victor enlisted the help of the Jedi Exile and his followers. In the canonical Light side ending, the Exile intervened on behalf of the Queen, eliminating Vaklu's traitors.
Iziz appeared in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.

Otoh Gunga is an underwater Gungan city on Naboo. Like all the other Gungan cities, it is made up of bubbles that keep air in but keep water out. However, pushing through the bubbles will grant one access to its interior. The city is made up of many of these bubbles. It is visited by Jedi Masters Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. They were the first outsiders to visit the city in Gungan history.
The city's Gungan inhabitants played a large role in the pre-Clone Wars conflict known as the Battle of Naboo. Relatively at peace and neutral, during the Clone Wars Otoh Gunga was attacked by Imperial Forces and partly destroyed. The Gungans surrendered, and made a puppet state of the new Empire, but appointing mainly human officials. With a new social ladder in place, the Gungans were soon driven to poverty and many left the city to the surface.

Tibannopolis
Tibannopolis is the second largest city on Bespin. Much like the better known Cloud City, it is a Tibanna gas mining facility that exists as a floating city in the clouds.
Tibannopolis is an older city than Cloud City, and was far less successful. It lacked the extensive storm warning systems that kept Cloud City safe, and what little systems it did have were scrapped or salvaged fairly early in the city's life. By the time of the Battle of Yavin it had been largely abandoned, leaving a population of a handful of hermits, transients, smugglers, and freelance Tibanna gas miners. By this time, most of the city had been scavaged by visitors and inhabitants, leaving a skeletal framework with many twisted support girders and cut or damaged bulkheads. The entire city appeared to be structurally unsound, and visitors would have serious doubts about the safety of landing their ships on the rickety landing platforms.
Due to lack of maintenance, by 11 ABY, one of the four repulsorlift generators for the city had failed, and at that time it was estimated that the entire city would fall into the depths of Bespin from complete repulsorlift failure by 16 ABY. It is not clear if this failure happened and if the city survived beyond this point.

Zehava
Zehava is the capital of the planet Melida/Daan. During the planet's civil war, the city was divided into Melida and Daan sections, much like Berlin in the Cold War. Its barriers feature durasteel walls and several guard outposts with numerous blaster turrets and other defenses.
The city suffered from over twenty-five battles, which turned it from a sprawling, yet elegant metropolis into a slum. The Melida and Daan dug a series of tunnels during the battles, which were inhabited by a youth pacifist group known as the Young. Moreover, the city itself features numerous Halls of Evidence, or tombs, for dead soldiers.
Once Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Young reunited the Melida and Daan factions, the city of Zehava began rebuilding. Its current status has not been explored by any published sources.
