During the late afternoon departure bank at ZZZ I noticed several passengers in the X and Y concourse and gate areas who were not actively eating/drinking and were non-compliant with the State X; Worker Union; and Company Face Covering Policy. I did not hear any announcements in the gate areas nor did I witness any of the companies Ground Personnel (Customer Service) reminding the passengers to comply with the policy. I had discussions with airport police; Homeland Security; and CBP [Customs and Border Protection] who all stated they do not enforce the state face covering policy. I spoke with ZZZ inflight senior base manager about the non-compliance issue and she stated that the concourse is not owned by the company and therefore cannot enforce the policy in the terminal. I am advocating for Flight Attendants who are evidently the only ones required to remind passenger's to comply with the face mask policy which sets us up for failure and contributes to the hundreds of reports of passengers non-compliance.
Flight Attendant reported concerns with many passengers not wearing face masks in the gate area at airport.
