Best Answer

If the flag on top of the White House is raised, that means he is in office.

---------------------

This is a tradition taken from the various European Monarchs, and is a formality, not a hard and fast rule.

In reality, the President's exact location at any time can be a carefully held secret (and others, not so much). So, take the flag positioning as a guide, not an actual verification of residence.
