All of them have plenty of rural areas, but I'd say SC has the smallest metros/urban areas if you're curious about that. Georgia has the Atlanta metro where practically half the population of the whole state resides (around 5 million people). North Carolina has Charlotte, the Triangle, and the Triad. Virginia has NOVA (DC suburbs), the Hampton Roads, and Richmond. The Greenville Metro is the largest in SC, and it doesn't even have a million people.

But you also have to keep in mind that SC is the smallest of all these states geographically as well. And the Greenville MSA doesn't have a million people, but under the old rules it was the Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson MSA which did have over a million. It's now classified as a CSA with 1.4 million.

That's true. In general, all of these states have their rural areas along with their urban areas. You'll definitely find some pretty remote areas in all of them.
