## Colocation lease rates in Hammond

DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.

The market shows fragmentation across a small operator base with limited transparency—only one tracked site currently reports megawatt capacity to the market. This concentration among two operators and the absence of publicly reported aggregate capacity figures suggest a nascent or intentionally opaque market structure typical of secondary Indiana corridors.

Together, these scores suggest that Hammond can accommodate incremental power draw, but operators pursuing greenfield or major expansion projects should expect non-trivial engineering and infrastructure coordination with local utilities. Power availability is present but tight.

No recent deals have been tracked in Hammond, a notable void given broader industry momentum. Kansas City and Indianapolis markets, despite their own deal sparseness, show operator interest in regional Indiana and Midwest expansion through land acquisition and greenfield signaling. Hammond's deal silence does not necessarily indicate lack of operator interest, but rather that any transactions—if occurring—remain untracked or are structured outside conventional capital event reporting.
