These resources can help you locate data centers that are planned or operating in your community and who regulates them.


There are at least 596 operating and planned data centers across Texas, with more emerging every month, according to Texas Tribune research.

To get this number, we analyzed data from Data Center Map and Cleanview, which both compile and sell data on data centers. The data was supplemented with other data centers identified through our reporting, as well as facilities uncovered and submitted by our readers. We’ve found 14 additional data centers since our initial reporting in June.

Location information was combined with Census data to determine the types of areas where data centers are being built and give readers a clearer picture of what’s happening in their communities.


As a nonprofit journalism organization, we depend on your support to fund more than 170 reporting projects every year on critical global and local issues. Donate any amount today to become a Pulitzer Center Champion and receive exclusive benefits!


You can see if you are living near an existing or planned data center by entering your address below. This list is not comprehensive, in part because some data centers aren’t being reported on and new ones are popping up rapidly. Because we rely on multiple data sources, our list may contain duplicates.

According to ERCOT, the state’s power grid operator, nearly 2,000 projects are waiting to be connected to the grid, and roughly 90% of those are data centers. However, some of those are speculative data center projects. Still, this is a strong indication that our count is an undercount.

Find out who regulates data centers near you

While data centers are popping up across Texas, basic information can still be difficult to find. This includes where they’ll be located and how much power and water they’ll use.

We built another lookup tool to help readers find local and state officials who may have a role in regulating data centers near them. Enter your address to find out who manages water in your area and where to check if you’d like to find out more about your city council and county commissioners.

We also include your state lawmakers, who will likely consider proposals to regulate data centers during the next legislative session.

This is not a comprehensive resource, but it can serve as a starting point for readers who want to learn more and get involved. You can also read our full guide on finding information on data centers in Texas.

Submit missing data centers to us

If you know a data center that’s not included in our database, please fill out the form below. Many of the new data centers that we’ve added since June were submitted by readers.

The more specific you can be about the location of a data center, the better. The latitude and longitude would be ideal. But if that’s not available, please be as descriptive as you can.
