Meta is building the largest data center in the Western Hemisphere on a sprawling site in rural Northeastern Louisiana, and the state gave up a lot to get it.

    Honestly kind of surprised they’d put a data center there. Isn’t Louisiana known for swamps and hurricanes?

      Only south Louisiana. They’re putting the data center more north.

      Right? Wouldn’t the insurance costs outweigh how cheap the land is?

        North eastern Louisiana is no more likely to see a hurricane than southern Arkansas or mid-Mississippi
