Best Answer

The oldest and still populated city in Mexico - and possibly of the Western Hemisphere - would be Cholula, some 100 kilometers (62 miles) west of Mexico City. It was founded circa 1200 B.C.

If you mean 'founded by Spaniards', that would be Veracruz, founded by Hernan Cortes in April 22, 1519.
