Charlie's family is extremely poor and their house reflects their socioeconomic status. The house consists of only two rooms and has only one bed. Three out of the seven family members do not sleep in a bed, due to a lack of money to buy furniture. The house is also described as being very drafty in the winter, causing the whole family to suffer unbearably, especially those sleeping on the floor.
