My alma mater started one a few years ago and roughly half the teams in its conference have one. Going only by what's true in my state, college JV teams seem more prevalent at the D3/NAIA level as ilyazhito stated. That said, there have been some small college teams in New England that have a varsity team and B-level team that functions as JV team and plays some of the even smaller colleges in that region that field sporadic/fledgling teams that lack the talent and resources to compete on an organized level.
