Is "to" necessary before "go home"? It seems to be okay without "to", because the clause is connected with "and."

You're right, "to" is unnecessary here. "To" actually sounds unnatural in this case, especially with the conjunction "and" and because the first part of the sentence does not use "to" but uses "as" instead. So it would be better in this case just to say "go home at night" without "to".
