Why is it better to have a basement?

Why are homes up north built with basements? I assume there is some sort of practical reason. Is it to keep the pipes warm? What is it? I was reading up on basements in Ohio, where I am moving, and a huge percentage of them have water trouble. Who wants that worry? Are they cheap to build? What is it?
It’s easier to remodel the main floor I guess if you have a basement rather than slab construction. Is there any other major negative about slab construction in a cold climate? A crawl space can allow for the pipes to freeze I guess. Although, I had a crawl space in a house where the weather went below freezing, although it wasn’t usually below zero, or extreme for many months.
