It's not really that we assume it's either/or.... it's that we assume it is a bit of both

1. We know kingdoms train hunters that clear "safe zones" around the city

2. Beacon itself exists just outside of Vale

Do they interfere in daily life around the kingdom? likely not much, but if moderation is needed they likely do it, as well as fixing utility facilities outside the wall. Add to this we know that they are capable of and desire expansion and are invested in keeping grimm at a distance, which means things like slums just outside the wall cannot exist or else they draw grimm directly to the wall
