I have posted this elsewhere, but I suspect Jackson, MS and Birmingham, AL voted for Ford in '76.
Outside the deep south, I would say the GOP has not been competitive in cities, with one bizarre exception: In Boston, after the 1974 busing crisis, Wards 6 and 7 (South Boston) voted 42-55 and 47-50 respectively for Ford. South Boston may be the only white ethnic enclave in the country that voted for McGovern in '72 and Ford in '76.
