Why this score?
Four weighted factors drive the Glades County risk score. Methodology is fully documented — each input is public data or a reasoned proxy.
Moderate in-county generation. Viable for mid-sized facilities, extension required for hyperscale.
South Florida WMD — Everglades restoration, high demand, significant water stress.
Very rural. Abundant large parcels available for industrial conversion.
Multiple adjacent counties have active projects. High regional clustering pressure.
Adjacent activity
These neighboring counties currently have proposed, approved, or recently-withdrawn data center projects. Proximity matters — hyperscale campuses often cluster near existing infrastructure.
