Is it a symbol for country living, some kind of cult, a mark of the Klan, a Holy symbol, or is it simply a decoration? Or something else??

What stars? What state are you in that has stars on houses? Never seen anything like that. Could you mean the symbols that are on fraternity houses?

The star is an Amish tradition of placing a star on the barn as a good luck symbol. If you travel to the Lancaster, PA area you will see many stars on barns, houses,& businesses for luck. You will also see many of the Amish 'hex' signs and other symbols.
A 5-pointed star either in red or done in metal (often allowed to rust on purpose) is most often seen on houses.

They are now just a rustic decoration, but the originals which were heavy metal and smaller. Theu were used to show that people had paid up their dues for a particular fire company. You see them in old cities like Philadelphia and Boston.

I've read these answers and they are all strange to me. The only time that I've seen a star are peoples houses is at Christmas time.
I think that is for the star that led them to Jesus. At Christmas we always have a star on the Christmas tree top. This is the only star that I know about that has something to do with Christmas.

I am glad some one asked this one! My work is in a huge garden center and those dumb stars sell like Hot Cakes in Suburban Massachusetts. Nay be now I will find out why!

The pentagram appears in human drawings and scratches that date back to the earliest drawings and scratches.It is a primary star that can be drawn with one continuous motion. It has meant many things to many people.
