The United States holds the record (1,040 inches in one year on Mount Baker in Washington), and the Cascades up through the west coast of British Columbia and southern Alaska get similar totals. Labrador (eastern Canada) can get quite a lot as well.
Sapporo, in northern Japan, gets over 200 inches annually, mostly from ocean effect from the Sea of Japan, and mountains around there get even more.
Generally anywhere with high mountains can get a lot of snow, which puts some places around the Himalayas in the running. The Alps get plenty of snow but less than the Rockies and some other mountain chains due to their east-west orientation. Eastern Turkey in the higher elevations likely receives well over 100" annually.
As far as a town or city, it would depend on what you consider to be a city. Most ski resorts in the snowiest areas average 200-400 inches annually.
