There are basically three locations within Skyrim with Thalmor presence. Markarth, Thalmor Embassy and North Watch Keep. Later, I would say have the bigest concentration of Thalmor as it supposed to be their maximum security prison. However, Thalmor Embassy might have more soldiers inside as the feel like they need to be protected. Markarth garison, is only enough to make sure the outlaw of Talos worship is enforced there, as it was an issue to them in the Reach because of Markarth incident. Perhaps it's a good thing that they don't like to use their Embassy within Castle Dour, it keeps them out of Solitude for the most part. I wonder why they don't feel safe to have constant presence in Capital of Skyrim? I am sure that those Thalmor will not be an issue if it comes to war. Unless it's going to be like in Sentinel at the beggining of Great War when Thalmor magic users burned down entire city quorter with Aldmeri Disidents, before anyone could do anything.
