AI Data Centers by US State
The United States hosts more large-scale AI data center capacity than any other country. Browse facilities state by state — from Virginia's data center corridor to Texas's growing AI mega-campus cluster, Oregon's renewable-powered Google hubs, and beyond.
Why These States?
Northern Virginia (Loudoun and Prince William counties) is the world's largest data center market, accounting for roughly a third of global colocation capacity. Cheap power, proximity to federal agencies, and decades of network infrastructure investment made it the default anchor for hyperscaler expansion.
Texas offers abundant land, a deregulated energy market (ERCOT), and aggressive state incentives. OpenAI's Stargate campus near Abilene, Meta's El Paso facility, and Google's Wilbarger County campus are each targeting gigawatt-scale power.
Oregon and Iowa emerged as AI training hubs because of cheap hydroelectric and wind power, moderate climate reducing cooling costs, and early commitments from Google and Meta. The Pacific Northwest corridor — from The Dalles to Hillsboro — anchors Amazon and Google's western infrastructure.
