They're just map filler. It's either this, or tiny "towns" ala Skyrim. This feels more realistic to me, you don't have any reason to enter most houses anyway. Of course, it would be nice if ALL the NPCs actually had schedules and returned to their houses (merchants can simply have someone else pull night shift).
