The more rural areas I’ve lived, the more common I’ve seen shoes on in the house. Same with the size of the house, if really big, common shoes on. City house on the smaller side have most commonly been shoes off. Although I’m a shoes off regardless kind of guy
As a someone who lives in a rural area myself, this is accurate. In fact, I've been poked fun of by family and friends for NOT wearing shoes around the house occasionally. Of course, I do now now wear shoes around the house, but mainly out of necessity than want.
My family has 2 dogs and 3 cats. As it turns out, if I walk bare foot in the house long enough the dogs' hair will inevitably dig into my soles, like splinters. This happened once, and the painful extraction of those hairs is reason enough to keep my shoes on.

What’s the necessity?
Sometimes the landlord lets a batch of live scorpions loose in your apartment, it happens
Dirty floors, running in to grab something, puddle from something leaking, doing any electrical work, etc.
