Our streets are clean and well maintained.
There are no piles of dog poo poo, puddles of piss or alcoholic puke on our streets.
Also we own more than one pair of shoes. So we do take off the shoes we wear to work (public toilets).

So you take off the work shoes when you get home, and put on the house shoes?

Not right away, but if I go out for a smoke I put my sneakers or vans or whatnot, take a walk in the park, come back, why would I take them off? I'll go for another smoke in an hour or so.
When I have friends over, I don't require them to take their shoes off. What's a big deal?

The interior of our house, save one small area directly inside the entrance from the garage, is a no-shoe zone.

gently caress wearing a shoe inside unless it's a house slipper or something. When workers have to show up for something, we ask them to put on shoe covers, and they generally have those on hand and don't act surprised when we ask for it, or they're already putting them on by default.

If for some reason we're stuck with people wearing shoes inside the house, vacuuming and mopping/swiffering happens as soon as they're gone. How often do we have house parties, you may ask? Fuckin' never, I'd rather pay a bunch of money to host an event elsewhere if I have to than have a bunch of people walking around in my house with their damned shoes on.

The bank and the liquor store where I live don't mind me being barefoot so as long as it's nice enough I refuse foot coverings. But dang restaurants keep telling me I gotta wear shoes.

For what it's worth, I have shoes that I only wear in the house. I got big feet and long toes and I'm constantly stubbing my toes on everything. I'd rather have some nice "indoors only" shoes than deal with breaking my toes all the time.

Also, nobody is interested in looking at my giant gross hobbit feet.

This is true. I work in the Texas Medical Center, and I can perceive the change of seasons just by how much piss, poo poo, and vomit the hobos leave in the parking garage stairwells.

Do shoe people wear them to bed as well, or when do they actually take them off? Put them on a little stand by the bedside? Under the pillow?

I have seen videos that suggest high-heels are sometimes worn in bed so...

I don't and I do get a little irritated in the back of my mind when people come over and don't take their shoes off. But not enough for me to actually care (unless they are tracking poo poo inside).
