What can I say... America is a hard place to live if you are interested in cultural things. The overal climat is quite different from the Old World.In Europe one can absorb great deal of it just by the osmosis, by simply being in the middle of it, absorbing it almost passively.
Here you need to play an extremely active role in seeking it out. If you relax you will quickly become a hamburger.
Almost anything IS available here, but it is usually beneath the surface, so you have to break the ice to get to it.
But I also believe Europe is simply lagging the US in that regard, not leading. There has been steady decline there too.
