I assume it's because many people outside the USA are accustomed to taking off their shoes when entering a house or apartment.

We take off our shoes here. At least I do. What kind of filthy animals want dirt on their floors?

If you watch American shows or movies, people always wear shoes in houses and even on sofas. I think the assumption originates from there.
