Best Answer

Fitzgerald brings the McKees into the story to show the contrast between their mundane lives and the glamorous world of the main characters, highlighting the superficial and materialistic nature of the society they inhabit. Additionally, the McKees serve as a narrative device to add depth to the social commentary on the disparity of wealth and values in the 1920s.

I think it's to show the kind of people Myrtle is associated with. Like how East Egg people think they're better than West Egg people because their money is "old." I think they are trying to show that Daisy and Myrtle come from different worlds; rich and poor, upper class, lower class.
