Living in Ohio (midwest U.S) its not entirely a yes or no and more of a “it depends”. Ive noticed older people assume shoes on but anyone under 40 will either ask or assume shoes off at the door. Theres also a layer of midwest nice to the whole exchange of not wanting to inconvenience the other person, so you get situations where a party will start with everyone wearing shoes, but end with everyone shoeless.
Older people have a much harder time taking on and off shoes so it makes more sense that they leave them on all the time. The same is true for overweight people. (Although I would have thought the old people definition would be >60 not >40)
