My poor frozen-to-death grass

I grew up in a perpetually temperate zone, so here’s a question for you folks in snowy/icy states: does your grass die every winter? My lawn is completely dead, except for a few patches under bushes and trees, as if I haven’t watered it all season long. I’m guessing it’s the unusually freezing temperatures, but I don’t know for sure. Does it just grow back in the spring?

Not that I expect to still have a lawn to worry about come spring, but I just like to know things. All the neighbors’ lawns appear to be the same way. However the grass around this high-rise I work in is still green. Like really impossibly green. How do they keep it from freezing to death? I think they paint it. Maybe I should paint my lawn green too.
