We usually don't wear shoes in our house, but sometimes do (like if we think we'll be going back outside shortly). We don't express a preference either way to our guests.
Much to my annoyance, my father considers it really weird to go shoeless, kind of improper. Like if someone stubs their toe, he's all "That's what you get for going barefoot like a hillbilly." Though he's from a background where acting too redneck was something people were concerned about. If he were asked to take off his shoes in someone's house he'd do it without hesitating, but he'd probably feel uncomfortable the whole time, like he was sitting around in his pajamas. Karma.
