I don’t think all of them. I believe data center are a net negative for the residents in the area. I live in South Texas and the county here really gave it their all to get Space X down here. It has become a big employer in this area. There’s a few locals I know that work there as HVAC or welding. The higher skilled jobs move in people from outside here, but they contribute to the local economy by shopping, entertainment, eating, and taxes.
