Is a Data Center Coming

Los Angeles County, CA

Digital Realty Vernon Data Center

Digital Realty. Rumored. 32 MW.

Digital Realty paid about 49 million dollars, roughly 9 million dollars an acre, for a 5 acre site on Pacific Boulevard in Vernon in November 2025, planning a 32 megawatt data center. Vernon runs its own municipal utility, Vernon Public Utilities, which sells power at roughly half the rate of the region's investor owned utilities and has become a draw for data center developers including Prime, Goodman Group, CoreSite, and Digital Realty. No site plan or permit application for this specific parcel has been reported yet.
