here's some recommendations that were made on when this subject came up before there was a BF Evo forum.
Plasticville USA does have a bank in fact. I've seen it show up on eBay new as low as $10.
If you want to go the paper route, look up World Works and their Streets of Mayhem series. For $15 you get a PDF file to make as many buildings you want out as long as you have cardstock and printer ink. Good stuff, and if you reinforce them with foamcore they make some pretty good looking and durable buildings.

On the other hand, I don't bother with foamcore and it's worked out fine. One of my buildings has died but its cheaper to replace than resin pieces.
Working with foamcore takes more time than I have.
I would also suggest World Works (www.worldworksgames.com) for paper terrain, their art is usually high quality. However, their pieces are sometimes more complex to build.

Here's a company that I plan to do lots of business with soon. 
Amera has vacuum formed plastic terrain that is durable and light. I have some of their hills already since I wanted to see how their cheapest stuff paints and holds up. It's passed my tests.
Next I'll be buying some buildings.

They also have a distributor in the US which may get you the products faster.

Old Crow have now incorporated Ainsty castings stuff into their range. They have some very impressive Shopfront and interiors, cash machines, pavements, street lights, coke machines, the works. They even have the rooftops available if you want to get into extreme details.
Is the BFEvo scale established at 1:65? If so, anyone looking for scale buildings and such should take a look at S scale, which is 1:64. It is an American model railroading scale (I haven't seen any models for non-American stuff anyway). The buildings available are generally expensive, but there are a lot of scratch-building supplies that can be used, like windows, doors and other details. Take a look at the Walthers.com online catalog and make a search for S scale.
0 scale is 1:48 and perhaps a little too big for BFEvo, but you can find a lot of useful stuff in that scale too. For us Europeans 0 scale is - for some odd reason - set at 1:45 on the continent and 1:43.5 in the UK (hence H0 - half 0 at 1:87 - end of lecture!).
