They wouldnt be worried about another dragon, as smaug was the last known dragon.

also, with the argument of "They wouldnt need cities since they had Erebor", with that logic it might as well be "Gondor doesnt need cities because they have Minas Tirith"... Why not have dwarf villages/cities just to have them? Other factions have villages and towns, so why should dwarfs be left out? These would be awesome just as an alternative and unique structure, something cool that will be unique to the dwarfs. No, it's not at all like saying that Gondor doesn't need cities because they have Minas Tirith. It's like saying that we shouldn't make a "volcano" structure that spawns in the area around Mount Doom, because there's already a big volcano there. The only way I can picture Dwarves in Lonely Mountain not being part of Erebor is if they were recluses, living with their families, and not in a city. Dwarven cities should not spawn in Erebor.
