idk. about US in some EU countries it's pretty common to only have LTE+5G sending stations. I.e. most parts are hand over LTE and only some traffic gets switched over to 5G (e. g. video streams or large downloads). the reason is simple that: - backwards compatibility for all the non 5G devices is needed - for most daily use LTE is enough - use-cases which really need 5G and are in the normal phone radio network are still rare, the most common probably bring 5G to WiFi router in some cases. But such solutions are often seen as last choice if they is no other solution so mostly in the country side where the 5G/LTE net often isn't grate either (of available at all)
