In Boston area supermarkets I see limited displays of lamb chops and other cuts of lamb regularly priced around the same as lower-mid cuts of beef, roughly $8-$10 per pound, sometimes less on sale. Legs are usually imported from New Zealand, which considering it's halfway around the world the price is quite impressive. We usually make stew or curry. My dad roasts it. I have a feeling a lot of local non-immigrants don't know how to cook lamb, let alone goat or mutton.
Goat shows up at some of the Caribbean and South Asian markets and take-out places.
I don't recall ever seeing mutton at any local market or menu. This 2016 forum thread advises asking some specialist halal or Armenian butchers: https://www.hungryonion.org/t/places-to-buy-mutton-in-boston/6630/3 https://www.hungryonion.org/t/places-to-buy-mutton-in-boston...
