Irv Manders: You men are tresspassin. Show me a warrant or get off my land.

Question: At the end of the movie why does Charlie go to live with the older couple on the farm?
Answer: Charlie had nowhere else to go and trusted no-one. The Manders had previously taken in Charlie and her father, were kind, and, knowing the truth, did not exploit them and tried to protect them. Charlie needs a home and knows they will care for her.
