Columbus is seeing a data center explosion, growing at a staggering 1,800% since 2020—by far the fastest in the country. Tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft are pouring billions into the region, snapping up land and building massive campuses. While this brings huge investments and tax revenue, locals are starting to question the impact: these centers use tons of power and water, but don’t create many jobs. With demand for AI and cloud services only rising, will this tech surge benefit the community, or just change the landscape? What do you think about this rapid transformation? #Business #Columbus #DataCenters
