Best Answer

On the island of Sicily, the city of Catania is adjacent to Mount Etna, only about 12 miles (19 km) from the summit. The population is estimated at 313,000 in the city proper, and about 1.1 million residents in the metropolitan area, which could be impacted by a large eruption as occurred in 1669. In that event, the city wall of Catania diverted much of the lava flow into the sea, and casualties were minimal in the city. Earthquakes in the region have been much more damaging than eruptions.

No single city has that title. There are no cities on Mars. The nearest city on Earth to Mars will change as Earth rotates so that the same side of Earth does not always face Mars. It makes little difference, though, because Earth is tiny compared to the distance between planets.
