Some of them have collectibles tied to them, and they are also a good source of experience and money. You need all the collectibles in one save file. If you missed something from the story area, you can still get it in Co-op by joining someone else's game.
You can track your collecting progress in the Collections Menu. Each item has a unique name, so you can compare your results against the list to see what you're missing.
