The Inuit/Eskimos are some of the more self-sustaining peoples on the planet. They don't depend much on imports from elsewhere, at least not to my knowledge. They had to figure out many adaptations for the area but they make it work and have done so for a long time.
To compare them with a city representing the pinnacle of mankind's hubris is a bit of a reach imo
