Office buildings presumably are filled with bodies who get paid, who will spend some amount of money in the local economy.

I'm not sure data centers could make the same argument.

The agents will leave the data center and buy stuff from the local economy, didn’t you hear that?

I have lunch around the datacenters when I go to them.

The main point I think is density - for their size datacenters typically don't hire many people.
