Anyone can organize a meetup anywhere. There have been a few meetups on the east coast and California. The distance factor seems to be a problem for people in the US.
It's a matter of putting it out and seeing if people are interested in getting together. The UK and Europe seem to have a great amount of success with their meetups, 2 of which I had the immense pleasure to particpiate in.
