Depending on the state, data centers in other states can still impact your prices. A lot of power is traded on inter state markets, so local companies might be selling more of their power or it is more expensive for them to buy others... but also, the various inputs (fuel and specialized equipment) are also seeing a jump in price as demand for those increase too.
Yep, any increase in demand is going to affect prices even if it's not in your location as costs for supply will increase. This increases for everyone not just the people next to datacentres.
Not that the OP didn't also have a valid point.
