Kind of an odd question to ask here I guess but are pier and beam style homes common in northern climes in the US and elsewhere?

I'm a few miles north of the southernmost part of Texas/mexico so it freezes for a day here. Plumbing is exposed, underside of flooring is exposed, etc. is this common elsewhere or just a southern/hot weather thing?

I'm rerouting plumbing under here today. Made me curious if this happens elsewhere...
