It’s also closer to Santa Monica, CA (western end of I-10) than it is to Orange, TX (eastern end of I-10 in Texas).
Phoenix, Arizona (345 miles (555 km) away)
Santa Fe, New Mexico (273 miles (439 km) away)
Ciudad Chihuahua, Chihuahua, (218 miles (351 km) away)
Hermosillo, Sonora (325 miles (523 km) away)
Austin (528 miles (850 km) away)
It is crazy driving east on I-10 in Texas and the mile marker is 810 miles.
