Why does some coastal cities/counties have a problem of lacking drinking water?

Like California and South Africa, isn’t the principle of water distillation relatively easy? evaporating from one end and cooling it from the other so that it becomes liquid again, leaving all the salt and pollutants behind.

Imagine you have a big bucket of water, but you can’t drink it because it’s salty like the ocean. Some coastal cities and counties have this problem because their water sources, like rivers or underground wells, get mixed with salty ocean water. So, they can’t use that water for drinking because it tastes bad or can make them sick. To solve this problem, they need to find ways to get clean, drinkable water, which can be a big challenge
