Answer 1

To save id and city you should be doing something like this:

cities_dict = resp.json()['result']
for id in cities_dict:
    obj1=City.objects.create(cityid=id, city=cities_dict[id])
    obj1.save()

Answer 2

I would rather use dict.items to get the key AND the value in one shot:

cities_dict = resp.json()['result']
for k, v in cities_dict.items():
    obj1 = City.objects.create(cityid=k, city=v)
    obj1.save()
