The dome is a sturdy structure.
Consider the Arch and how prevalent it is throughout the world in architecture. It's one of the strongest forms for support and weight distribution.

They're cool. Not in a temperature way. I grew up in Northern CA, where these were very popular. They're roomy, usually a big living area instead of lots of little rooms, and a tall ceiling and lofts. It's great fun when you're a kid.
I think they're also cheap and (in some cases) portable.

They are strong.
That's about it! They're hard to build, hard to cool/heat because of large internal area, etc. But they strong! Strong as heck! You could build one out of.... uhm... cardboard!
