Verdict**CAUTION**

## Colocation lease rates in Rochester

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

This combination—sufficient power today but tightening pressure ahead—yields a CAUTION verdict from the DCPI framework.

The CAUTION verdict on new power reflects the interplay of these two scores.

Frontier Rochester's four-site dominance and Centurylink Rochester's two-site presence establish two regional anchors; the remaining eight facilities spread across four smaller operators suggest a competitive, non-monopolistic supply landscape. No recent capex deals or power procurement announcements are tracked, consistent with CAUTION-level markets where new projects are assessed cautiously rather than rushed.
