Could be. I don't know how the US people die less of heat. I know the overuse AC everywhere, but most people who die by heat are either on the streets, or old people. US has plenty pf them, and plenty of heat in Mexico and southern states.

Europe not only has plenty of old people, they're also unlikely to have AC at home, so every year during a heat wave, a large number of them (though still a small share of the population) don't make it.
