Imagine if you won the civil war in the empire's side, all the mess that would be if the argonians went into the city to live there... And the dunmer live in the other quarters? It would have been a mess. Imagine how many people would be inside Candlehearth Hall. Its because it is a GAME. Now, now, it is a bit more than just a game. The developers has made clear points in why they did what they did. They gave Brunwulf dialogues explaining the situation. And you know that not all Dunmer live in the Gray Quarter? One of them even owns his owen preperty. And as Dragonborn, either Dunmer or Argonian, you can still buy your own property. More Dunmer could probably live anywhere, if only they had the funds.

On another note, I find Brunwulfs dialogues very... shifty. First he can say: ''"Too many Nords in this town have been listening to Ulfric's narrow-minded words." At the same time he can be heard saying: "Don't let Ulfric or some of these other short-sighted Nords bother you. Most of us are happy to welcome newcomers." ''I find it weird that he first his accuses most of the residents of being narrow-minded and then he says that most are more tolerant. And when he becomes Jarl when will fall back to his previous statement:'' "Most of the folk in the city believe as Ulfric did, that outsiders should not be trusted." ''

And then there is that one line of dialogue that sounds so extreme, it sounds fake: ''"If Ulfric had his way, anyone who wasn't a Nord would be shipped right out of Skyrim." ''I dunno, I feel as that Brunwulf is regurgitating the same rhetoric Argonains and Dunmer spread about Ulfric. I don't think he is a bad man, he probably means well, but he has opened his mind too much to the point where he becomes naive and easily manipulated. That is why I, to a small extent, support Ulfric over Brunwulf (yes, I await all the hate in the world for saying that ;) )
