A humming annoyance or jobs boom? Life next to 199 data centres

In Loudoun County, Virginia, the 199 data centres have become a key part of the region's economy, contributing billions of dollars and creating thousands of jobs. However, some residents are concerned about the environmental impact of these facilities, including noise pollution and rising electricity costs. Despite opposition from locals, data centres are supported by political figures like President Donald Trump for their role in advancing technologies like artificial intelligence and boosting the manufacturing and technology sectors in the United States.
