This is not developed:

There's about 15 miles of this between Morongo and PS. Also, Malibu is a tiny sliver of development, while much of the mountains are protected and undeveloped. So I think the farthest west measuring point I'd use would be the far western edge of the SF Valley. Yes there's Ventura and Camarillo and what not, but in my opinion it's not part of the same urban morass as the SF Valley, LA Basin, SG Valley, and IE. Looking at aerial images confirms this pretty easily.
Pj3000 is counting very suburbia areas, so ventura definitely counts. Jupiter and juno Beach don't look like much . And there's open land north of palm beach. Im confused how the 101 development doesn't count, by stuff on route 1 does?
The 101 has employment centers, not just houses.

Also Miami to palm beach is 72 miles. Where is the 180 miles coming from? I see plenty of undeveloped land on 95
