I can feel that, it is not easy to find a really good coffee in the states, you really have to seek it out. There was a coffee shop in San Dimas that I would buy bags of their snicker doodle coffee during the holidays cause it was so good. Unfortunately they are under new management and no longer sell it.
For a little while there I knew a guy that roasted his own beans and was probably the best cup of coffee I've ever had. Unfortunately he moved out of state. Maybe you should do some searching and see if you can't find home roaster in your area and see what they have. It may require you joining some home roasting forums and making some friends but may be worth the effort.
