George Washington did not live there because it had not yet been built. The White House did not become the seat of the US government until 1800.

Where does the secret service live in the White House?

The secret service does not live in the White House. Actually it would be more appropriate to say that secret service agents do not live in the White House. The US Secret Service is tasked with Presidential security and there are numerous agents on duty at all times, at the white house and wherever the president is or will soon be. Like any other job, when the agents are not on duty, they go home to their families. If they are traveling with the president then they are provided with hotel rooms.


What happened to the white house after the war of the 1812?

It was scorched in the war when the British set it on fire. Dolly Madison ran out of the burning White House with the painting of Washington. To cover the burn marks the "presidents house" was painted white. In this time it was unusual for any house to be painted because paint was so expensive, so people began to call it the "White House ".After the repaires every president has lived in it. A few years ago repairs were being done to the White House and the burn marks from 1812 were found.


Which room in the White House does the president sleep in?

There is a designated "Master Bedroom" in the residential part of the White House on the second floor; however, there are roughly ten more bedrooms in the second and third floors of the White House (the private residential area of the First Family), on top of the fact that the President is entitled to use any room in the White House for any purpose that he would like; he could literally set up a bed in the Oval Office and declare that his bedroom (some Presidents have used an office in the Old Executive Office Building across the street, after all). With that in mind it is near impossible to answer your question with any degree of certainty, but it is most likely that the Obamas use the Master Bedroom as many Presidents have before them.
