The borough I live in explicitly prohibit the ownership of fowl within the borough limits, even a single bird is disallowed. Definitely check your local ordinances first.
Also, coops smell, I don't care what anyone says. You eventually get used to it, but your neighbors may not want to. Also, being in regular contact with fowl does increase your risk for influenza (not just the particular Flu of the Week that the news wants you to believe will kill us all).
However, I have my sincere doubts the risk would prevent me from doing it, as it's relatively small. I say go for it as long as it's legal.
