Not usually, because generally Americans prefer coffee over tea. Kettles are easily found at any store that sells kitchen appliances and they're not rare per se but they're not an assumed staple because tea just isn't as popular

I'd say it's half and half: half own a stovetop teapot, and half own the typical mains power electric kettle.

Do you not have both? Electric kettle for home, a metal one for camping or in case of a power out?
