The only ones that aren't outcasts are Farengar, Nura, Belrand and Frea. Farengar is the Courtmage of Balgruff in which he has probably earned the respect of the people of Whiterun. Nura is a healer, which as I've said is the only school of magic that the Nords truly still respect(Restoration). Belrand is a mercenary that drinks in the Winking Skeever, so he has probably also earned the respect of Solitude by doing bounties for the Jarl. Frea is a Skald, which is a totally different culture from the Nords of Skyrim and cannot be used as an example.
