The location is also used to determine the language the ad should use. In my games, "Word Prospector" and "Chasseur de Mots", I essentially have ads in english and in french, and, for some reasons, click on the ads in french are much more expensives !
So if your application is used world wide, I would still use the location, but perhaps have a place in my app explaining the permisions. If your application is mainly for the US market, I think there is no need...
