Proposed
Crusoe data center near Kingdom City (Callaway County)
Crusoe wants to build two large data center buildings on about 200 acres of farmland near Kingdom City. It would cost about $4.5 billion. Callaway County has no zoning, so the county's main say is over tax breaks.
Where things stand: Crusoe presented plans in July 2026. No land purchase or water deal yet; county is discussing an 80% personal property tax break.
🕒 Latest update (July 24, 2026): County commissioners said the deal is not final; no land purchase or water district agreement yet.
