Anthropic and OpenAI don’t have that many employees compared to most big employers. Their employees are highly compensated. The ratio between the housing the occupy and the taxes paid by their employees has to be one of the most favorable ratios of all companies in the area.
Losing those companies and their employees would cost the cities far more than they might gain.

It’s another example of inequality. Data center finances seem vaguely similar? They could be a good source of tax revenue but don’t provide many jobs.
