Muffy and her family reside in it, despite her family being very small and she has only one sibling: her older brother Chip, who is attending college. Their chauffeur and butler, Bailey also lives there, and is a great friend of theirs. The Crosswires do not allow anyone to bring their pets (such as Arthur's dog Pal and Francine's cat Nemo) into their mansion, but according to Muffy in "D.W., the Picky Eater", they have a dog. The mansion is located in Southeast Elwood City.
