Amazon Commits $3 Billion for New AI Data Center Campus in Warren County, Mississippi

State incentives, paired with a long-term power commitment, helped clinch the site.

Overview

  • The planned Vicksburg-area campus will expand capacity for AI and cloud computing using custom chips, advanced servers and high-performance network architecture.
  • Amazon estimates at least 200 direct jobs at the campus and more than 300 additional full-time equivalent roles in the local community.
  • Construction is expected to begin in 2026, according to state and company announcements.
  • Officials call it the largest private investment in Warren County’s history, with previously approved state economic-impact tools available and Entergy Mississippi’s power assurances cited as decisive.
  • Amazon launched a $150,000 Warren County Community Fund administered by ChangeX and noted Mississippi workforce programs that have trained more than 6,500 people, building on its separate $10 billion Madison County data center investments.
