We know what happened when refugees did flee to Gridania/The Shroud though. The sylphs freaked out. Assuming the elementals either allowed, put up with, or couldn't do anything about it, Ul'dah was made to be the manufactured choice because it has that "American Dream" idea of pushing up the ranks. ...they just don't tell people that it's probably impossible.
