I think that the gym leader is equivalent of a feudal lord of a town or city, and they are constantly at war with the other cities and towns. The people of each place are dependent on the gym leader to take care of them, so they are completely at the mercy of the leader. Towns with no gym leader live in never ending fear, they are constantly threatened with the possibility of an attack from a gym leader wanting to expand their territory, or from one of the godlike forces of nature that is the legendary Pokemon.
Yeah, I've thought about this.
