I have been hunting since around the time that the W quarter program started in 2019, and I have found exactly 2 W quarters in all my boxes hunted. I am not going through a box a week like some people since I search every coin for errors and varieties, but I would say even conservatively I have gone through a couple dozen boxes in that time. Even weirder, the only two Ws I have found have been in customer wrapped rolls, despite the fact that my machine wrapped rolls contained a very high concentration of 2020s for several boxes and I even got a complete box of SRB and tallgrass prairies that contained 0 Ws between the two of them.

So my question is what gives? Were some regions simply not sent Ws? Has anyone in this area or a different region had a similar experience?

I never saw one. Live in Michigan. But I haven't been avidly searching. I have $400 in quarter rolls from my change over the past couple years. I guess I could look through those but I might be too lazy.

But I do remember seeing a memo from the mint stating that none will be released in the Boston area. Just kidding, good luck with your quest.

Might have more to do with your bank and their coin vendor than anything else. The fact that you've received two in CWR tells me they're circulating in your area, but that your bank is probably not one of the ones getting the coins. If I were in your shoes, I would either try to go to a different bank for MWR or search more CWR.
