Any dedicated servers in Memphis?

Memphis is the 25th biggest city in the US, but AFAIK the only DC in Memphis is Cloudflare. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think they allow people to rent servers.
If there's not any datacenters selling dedis in Memphis, is there a reason why?
There's plenty of cities smaller than Memphis where you can grab a dedi at in the US, like:
Atlanta, GA
Kansas City, MO (Even though WSI is pretty terrible, still)
Miami, FL
Las Vegas, NV
St. Louis, MO
Newark, NJ
Buffalo, NY
Portland, OR
...and more

Here's a good start -

how about you launch MemphisDedis.com and get going?
Good resource, thank you! I just thought that was colocation but it didn't dawn on me it could be for dedicated servers too.
I wish I could, but I don't have the connections, money, or time to start up my own DC. I don't know how to market it either.
So, you want something simply because it doesn't exist?
I have a wonderful timeshare opportunity on the Moon for you...

Your premise is flawed. You have to look at the metro area population, not just the immediate city limits.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metropolitan_statistical_areas
Memphis - #42
Atlanta, GA - #9
Kansas City, MO - #30
Miami, FL - #7
Las Vegas, NV - #28
St. Louis, MO - #21
Newark, NJ - #1 (part of NYC)
Buffalo, NY - #50
Portland, OR - #25
So out of your list, only Buffalo is smaller.
if there is anything in Memphis it got stolen or shot at
I live in Memphis, I don't live on the moon.
Good point. I used information from this list.
I didn't know you actually live in Memphis. I'm really sorry about that.
I lived there for many years. Some really nice parts and some not so nice parts too
