A free U.S. tracker lets residents look up data-center projects near a ZIP code, follow local decisions, and find ways to respond.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-07 issue.

For: Residents tracking data-center projects near their town
Worth noticing: The homepage reports 852 U.S. projects, including 643 planned or being built, plus 1,100 local votes, rules and pauses.

Field notes

The lookup starts with a ZIP code; the map marks projects by stage, from proposed to stopped or cancelled, and offers satellite imagery. Coverage is uneven: the page says projects are currently listed in 14 states, while other states still show local decision-makers and electric companies. A latest-updates log records votes, ordinances, pauses and project announcements.
