Its not just quantity of jobs though. Are the jobs going to locals? Are the technicians coming from some small town that was chosen for the economics of building and runnign the datacenter? It seems fairly likely they would pick a small town that doesnt really have the knowledge base to serve as technicians. I mean it would be cool if they hired local.

There is training programs for this kind of stuff in the local universities which are an hour or less drive away. I would agree, there probably isn't too many people in town with the skills - probably lots of people will move to town.
