Honest question: wouldn't it be advantageous to build data centers in cooler areas next to large body's of water, like the upper Midwest? I'm sure there are metrics I'm ignorant of, but that would seem to make more sense than building in a hot/dry place.

Cooler areas with large bodies of water tend to have these pesky things called regulations that means they would make slightly less money.
