"Used to" refers to an action which someone did on a regular basis in the past, but not any more.
He used to smoke a lot, but later he quit smoking. (he doesn't smoke any more)
I used to go swimming every week, but I don't have time for it any more.
There is a difference between "I used to do" and "I am used to doing" something.
I used to live in a city. (I lived in a city in the past, but not any more)
I am used to living in a city. (I live in a city and I've got used to it, so I don't find it strange).
