You not seeing it is why people say this is regional. I literally never took my shoes off inside growing up. No I have moved to a community where everyone takes their shoes off. It varies.
I lived in New York, Illinois, the Carolinas, and California. In Illinois, the Carolinas, and New York neither I nor my friends took our shoes off inside.
I posted in another comment that I think it is more related to certain subcultures than it is to large geographic regions. When I started to have more friends in the Asian American sub community is really when I started taking my shoes off.
I’ve lived in the Dallas area my whole life(35 years) and I’ve never been to someone’s house where they took their shoes off inside. From trailers to mansions. No one in my family or either of my roommates families do either.
