Ducted evaporative cooling is popular in my neck of the woods, where we have hot and quite dry summers. You'll feel its limitations on a really hot and/or humid day though. The big plus of evaporative cooling is that it's a lot less costly than refrigerative as it's basically just a fan and a water pump.
For our next place I'm going to see if there's some sort of hybrid evaporative + refrigerative cooling system, with the refrigerative side kicking in on the warmer days. Or I may just get a small refrigerative split-system unit as supplementary cooling in the upstairs office.
