Most houses and buildings are made of bricks with internal steel frames. See, the Yucatan peninsula is in the path of many hurricanes during the hurricane season (June 1st - November 30th) and any building made of lighter materials such as wood, cardboard or palm is prone to being blown away by the wind and rain.
Besides, most of the Yucatan peninsula is made of limestone (a major component of concrete) therefore such material is cheaper within the region. For instance, most roads on the Mayan Riviera are made of hydraulic cement.
