    I’m not sure I understand your point. Do the other cities around share in the burdens of having the data center there? Are they sharing the consequences to water, electricity, and pollution equally? Tax burdens and the like as well? If not, why should it matter who the neighbors are? If so why are they even separated in the first place?

      Actually yes, the towns do indeed share. They get massive amounts more tax revenue from the added business of the surrounding major city.

      If this was a rural podunk town with a population of 13k then you could call it a small town, as it wouldn’t have the supporting infrastructure around it to sustain what a city like OP posted could.
