I'm always amazed when I think of a big data center in Prineville. I'm currently reading a book on the history of the area: https://amzn.to/2KLxqyM , since I live down the road in Bend. Pretty much your basic small western town, with native americans, range wars, and a murderous group of vigilantes in its past and a popular rodeo in this day and age.

Nice place to visit if you ever get the chance, on the way to the Painted Hills for instance.
