Brick houses don't fare well in seismic areas (think California) and they're more costly/time consuming to fix in areas frequently visited by tornadoes.

The entirety of the American West is subject to seismic areas. We're still having aftershocks from a magnitude 6.5 earlier this week in Central Idaho.
