  1. St. Augustine,FL 1565, Roanoke,VA, 1576, Jamestown,VA,1607.


  2. The first US colonial city was in fact Jamestown Virginia, discovered in 1607 by Sir Humphrey Gilbert. However in 1584 Sir Walter Raleigh founded the Roanoke Colony in what is now North Carolina, but because they didn't have enough supplies it didn't last. Plymouth was the second colony founded in 1620 followed by Maryland in 1634

    EDIT: These are the first 3 british colonies in the US.

  3. jamestown if its not colonial times, then philadelphia

  4. first "permanent" European colonization (as opposed to earlier settlement by the Vikings,  and earlier at Roanoke in North Carolina, which did not last)

    Spain at St. Augustine, 1565

    England at Jamestown, 1607
