The houses look like homes in countryside or farms etc, and that's why the suits caught my attention as it does not look like people who wear suits live there, since the suit people are also eyeball people, I thought maybe they represent the rich who are gobbling up family homes and land as investment, until something beyond their comprehension comes around to pass judgement
I really like that interpretation. The original inspiration for the whole concept was H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds and taking place in the countryside. I like that thought of city folk escaping the cities thinking they're safe out in the country, which unfortunately they were not.
