Why not do it at a base not located in a busy civilian neiborhood?

Because you would not get all of the RF interference.

If you were doing tests without firing anything, there is no danger of harming any civilians. But you get the full effect of working within that environment.

Shoot down a few; do a forensic analysis; figure out what frequency they’re using; radio detection gear shows who is holding the controller; missiles away.

More sense than just letting it happen for 17 days.
