How This County Made the Data Center Boom Pay Off
AI is driving a wave of new data centers, but communities are increasingly asking what they get in return. Virginia’s Loudoun County turned the industry into a major tax base that helped fund schools, parks and infrastructure, yet even there, officials are now putting limits on further growth. The bigger lesson may be that towns have more bargaining power than they think. (Source: Bloomberg)

FLIC Trust Score70 / 100
How FLIC Trust Scores workFLIC Trust Scores turn community ratings into a 0–100 signal about how readers assess a story. Fake News votes lower the score, while Liberal, Conservative, and Independent classifications support it. The formula also rewards a balanced split between Liberal and Conservative ratings instead of treating one political viewpoint as automatically more trustworthy. Scores can change as more people vote and represent community judgment, not a factual verdict or substitute for reading the original reporting. Learn more about how FLIC works.
