Summary
Sterling, Virginia, residents say a nearby data center is emitting a high-pitched whining sound that is keeping 9-year-old twins awake at night.
Hari Doue said the noise was not there before the facility was built, tying the sleep disruption directly to the center’s operation.
The complaint highlights a growing neighborhood impact from data-center expansion in suburban Virginia, where facilities can bring persistent industrial noise close to homes.
