You could also make the ajax call more generic, reusable, so you can call it from different CRUD(create, read, update, delete) tasks for example and treat the success cases from those calls.

makePostCall = function (url, data) { // here the data and url are not hardcoded anymore
   var json_data = JSON.stringify(data);

    return $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: url,
        data: json_data,
        dataType: "json",
        contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8"
    });
}

// and here a call example
makePostCall("index.php?action=READUSERS", {'city' : 'Tokio'})
    .success(function(data){
               // treat the READUSERS data returned
   })
    .fail(function(sender, message, details){
           alert("Sorry, something went wrong!");
  });
