I'd strongly suggest having a look at something like Doctrine DBAL (not ORM) - it allows you to heave key => value pairs and makes these types of operations easier to wield when there's so many values.

You can then do something like:

try {
    $conn->insert(
    'db.`table`',
     [
       'city' => $city,
       'state' => $state
     ]);
} catch (Exception $e) {

    if( $e->getCode() !== '23000' ) {
        throw $e;
    }

    $conn->update(
    'db.`table`',
     [
       'city' => $city,
       'state' => $state
     ],
     [
       'user' => $user
     ]);
}
