there absolutely are, a google away https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/

But they are generally rising, just not more than compared with pre-industrial era.

I mean, "plenty" isn't really true based on that link.

A best you could say "a few, in areas that are losing glaciers, which is expected due to basic physics"

That map clearly shows that only a few locations are experiencing a fall, so neither "plenty" nor summing to zero as claimed. But I'm interested to learn more about the evidence that the pre-industrial trend was the same, since my inexpert googling suggests otherwise, eg "Exceptionally stable preindustrial sea level inferred from the western Mediterranean Sea"
