Not all of it, but northern Mexico, both the mainland and Baja California, has extensive deserts.

Farther south, in central Mexico, there are continental or temperate climates, and extensive mountainous areas. Southern Mexico is composed mostly of subtropical highland climates. To the southeast, the Yucatan peninsula includes rainforests and swamps.

No, but it has a park known as 'Desierto de los Leones' (Literal translation: Desert of the Lions). As stated in Wikipedia:

The area was used as a retreat for a religious group, thus the name Desierto (Desert) means not "arid place", but not populated. The "Leones" [Lions] part of the name does not refer to the animals, but rather to the original landlord's lastname.

No. It has a temperate climate because it lies on the subtropical region, at the same latitude of Honolulu, Hawaii. It is cooler than Hawaii because it is located on 'higher ground', 2240 m (7349 ft) above sea level.
