Gas stations with toilets are absolutely not normal and standard in these sorts of areas. Including where I live.
Yes, they are normal in most places - but there are areas public restrooms effectively do not exist due to the amount of abuse they take and the zero political or societal interest in fixing those issues or helping local businesses out with appropriate law enforcement or whatnot.
It was pretty rough for me driving through downtown Atlanta - nowhere seemed to have public restrooms.
Around my home every business will have a public restroom, or a not-so-public restroom that's still available if you ask.
