But you insulate to keep the warm in and cold out in the winter and reversely to keep the cold in and hot out in the summer. So shouldnt they have proper insulation for summer months?

The temperature difference between the outside and what you want inside is a hell of a lot more when it's cold like this versus when it's hot. Consider right now in Dallas it's like 13 F. It's a hell of a lot more difficult to get your home heated into the mid-60s-low-70s (idk where you people want it) from where the temperature is right now than it is to cool it down in the summer.

Honestly I have no idea what the insulation standards are in Texas (and I'm sure it's different from say, Amarillo to Dallas to Galveston) but considering I can find articles referencing to "make sure your exterior walls are insulated" then it might not be the greatest everywhere!
