Home directories can be mounted at login from a network file share (AFP/SMB/NFS) or could be encrypted (ala Legacy FileVault) and not accessible when the user is not logged in. Or the user account could be coming from a network directory service and no local home has (yet) been created because the user has not (yet) interactively logged in.

There may be other scenarios.
