That is divisive even within the country.

I was raised in small town Ohio and taking your shoes off, especially in a strangers home (occasionally not in your own because of practicalities like going back and forth to unload the car), was considered part of common etiquette along with not wearing hats indoors.

Both of those things really depend on your family though as I've definitely met people that just don't care.

I don't like walking on my carpeted areas in my shoes, but I don't mind walking in the laminate in shoes. Easier to clean imo.

I just don't have carpeted areas ;)
