Whoever says Greece is shoes on, I'll spit in their coffee.

The US one should be stripped, it varies state to state
The US is a nation of immigrants, so it depends on the host's culture of origin. So it varies from house to house.
UK is shoes ON. Canada definitely shoes OFF. US is shoes ON, drives me nuts seeing tv show characters hop on the BED with shoes on. 😡😡😡
The Netherlands look red but it's definitely a shoes on country. People find me weird for asking them to take off their shoes. Any idea how nasty the roads are? Any idea how easier it is to clean your floors when you don't bring all the nastiness from outside under your shoes? Plus it's much better not to wear shoes in general, for your feet. That's why I wear barefoot shoes outside and nothing inside. Because outside is naaaasty. Otherwise I would be barefoot everywhere.
I don't wear shoes in my own home. If I'm visiting your home, I'll follow your rules -- but tell me before I head over so I know if I need to wear my good socks.
Shoes off, you filthy animal
Greetings from Australia; this is wrong. It's likely off or mixed, based on heritage and cultural factors.
The only thing this map tells me is "Fuck the Colorblind"
What a shit map
Wearing shoes in the house is psychopath behavior
How is it ok to lie on a white coach with your muddy shoes is completely beyond me.
Guests take precedence. That's my cultural position. Otherwise, I do whatever I want in my home and clean up after as habit, regardless. Sometimes I wear shoes.
Sometimes my feet can be really smelly. I hate it when I go to someone's house where they expect me to pull my shoes off. Yes, odor eater powder helps, but I never know if removing my shoes is going to knock them out. Especially in the summer. It is better to just never go to other people's houses.
Walk around barefoot outside - nothing left to discuss.
I do not understand shoes on in the house. Like when youre sitting on the couch? Shoes on? Why? Also doesn’t your shit get all dirty?
It's as if by living in a nordic country I didn't want to bring the dirt and snow inside my home. Curious.
In The Netherlands, within my social circles, it's mostly seen as overly informal and quite intimate to take off your shoes.
You can do it at friends, but certainly not by default at acquaintances (unless they ask), as it might even be a little disrespectful considering taking off your shoes could smell a bit after some hours. Like you force your bodily odours or sweaty feet on to someone's house.
I totally get the opposite and am noticing a slow shift (also in my own house) to dropping the shoes. But it's interesting to see that both stances are based on some form of respect, and perhaps also some pragmatism on our side.
This chart is a hate crime against colorblind people.
Shoes off is both nicer and keeps the house cleaner. My family has always been on this side of things, except the folk in the Midwest, so I don’t care if this gets me on a list somewhere. What? Are gonna send ice to deport me?
Japan is a shoes-off country, but they often have slippers that they wear indoors. They just change their shoes like Mr. Rogers, but with less singing.
Where I live it's very rare and unusual to be asked to remove your shoes when going into someone's house. Normally you just brush your shoes on the front door mat and enter.
Where I live it is also unusual to be asked to take your shoes off because it's just expected that you will since it's disrespectful to just walk inside with your shoes on.
It's more usual to be told to keep your shoes on if it's something like a contractor coming inside to do some work.
Shoes on at home
Shoes off on the street or in the shops
This is bullshit every house I go to for all my friends in USA is shoes off..lol what?
France should be "shoes off". Never seen a French person who kept their shoes on in the house.
Boomer from Hamilton , Ontario, Canada, and growing up it was probably 70% shoes ON in my parts...lots of kids, in and out constantly. Obviously, snow and mud were exceptions. The 30% shoes OFF homes were the outliers...
It wasn't until my late teens that I started to notice a shift, personally and societally, to shoes OFF.
Nowadays, even if the host *insists* that I keep my shoes ON, it doesn't feel right, so I tend not to.
