In August 2026 Governor Abbott directed the PUC and ERCOT to review pending data center grid connections before more advance, with a first batch to be studied by April 2027. Any new data center that needs a large grid connection may be affected. We do not know whether that applies to Flatwood.

Nearby campuses show the pattern. The Vantage Frontier campus in Shackelford County reported about 9,300 workers in October 2026, and Abilene rents rose sharply as the Stargate campus hired. A smaller campus would need far fewer people, but even a few hundred workers fill motels and RV parks fast. See Vantage Frontier near Albany and the Abilene data center housing cost comparison.
Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park is one minute off I-20 at Exit 343 in Eastland, a short drive to most of the county. It is a quiet riverfront park with month to month sites, and the office can hold a block of neighboring sites for a crew.
A back-in site is $500 a month. A pull-through up to 100 feet is $650 a month. Electric is metered at your own pedestal at 17 cents per kWh and billed on top, so the honest total is site rent plus your own meter. We do not estimate the electric, because your rig and the season decide it. The deposit is $200 per site and refundable. Terms are month to month, so a crew can stay for one phase or the whole job.
If your company pays per diem, compare the monthly total with your lodging allowance. More on that in per diem RV living in Texas.
Send your start date, how long and how many rigs. The office replies the same day with what is open and a per-month total, electric billed on the meter.
