Why this score?
Four weighted factors drive the Pasco 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.
Southwest Florida WMD — growing population, rising water stress.
Urban/suburban mix. Few large parcels, mostly developed.
One adjacent county has an active project. Regional infrastructure is already being tapped.
Adjacent activity
These neighboring counties currently have proposed, approved, or recently-withdrawn data center projects. Proximity matters — hyperscale campuses often cluster near existing infrastructure.
