Amazon to invest $3 billion to build data center in Mississippi

On Thursday, Nov. 20, Amazon announced a $3 billion investment to build its second Mississippi data center campus in Warren County, creating at least 200 jobs and supporting over 300 more, Gov. Tate Reeves said.
Earlier this year, Amazon's Madison County commitments, including $10 billion plans, combined with Entergy's utility support and prior infrastructure, attracted the Warren County expansion.
AWS is still choosing between two Warren County sites, and expects to break ground in early 2026, with completion targeted in 2029, while launching the Amazon Warren County Community Fund.
Vicksburg Mayor Willis Thompson said `From our schools to our small businesses, every part of our community stands to benefit` regarding the $3 billion Amazon project, called Warren County's largest investment.
Multiple recent announcements along Interstate 20, with Wehner saying AWS may pursue more projects, are creating a potential 'Data Center Corridor' in Mississippi, driven by energy delivery from Entergy.
