South Carolina -- availability varies, but most parts of the state have at least some appointments and they seem to be becoming more readily available.

The people that do not want the vaccine are a part of why. There are different reasons for this, with some just wanting others to get a chance first. But noone is going to force people to take it.
Its also really unfair to characterize this as "rural areas" with "large numbers of vaccine denialists". We have urban areas with vaccines available and rural areas with full appointment books.
Be careful to click through to the actual pharmacies, though. It is often out of date with actual availability being lower than indicated. Our state has also been running mobile events that have generally not been fully booked.
I'm in no hurry personally, but I'm not seeing where it would be difficult to get for me.

My experience with VF was the exact opposite: it was showing lots of availability where in fact there was none.
But the burden of proof is still on you: what urban areas in the U.S. has good vaccine availability? By which I mean: anyone who wants one can get one same-or-next day.
