It refers to the keys A, S, D, F, J, K, L, and semicolon (;), which is where the fingers generally rest when they're not pressing other keys.

Why is home row called home row?

In my younger days,we had row houses.They were all in a row and all looked the same. as in mill hill houses.The mills would build houses and rent them to the mill workers.There is an old saying "I owe my soul to the company store" this also came from the mill hill villages where the mills owned the houses,stores,everything!! ADDED: As a Transatlantic difference, if these what I think they are - all joined into a long, single building - in the UK they are called "terraced" houses. Although an 18C concept they did become particularly associated with 19C industrial (not just mill) towns, but a lot of modern housing developments now are of terraced form. The "company store" ethos was used in Britain too, but its inherent unfairness led to its legal abolishment under a 19C law I think called the "Truck Acts".
