Can't launch rockets from California. Splitting time between SpaceX and Tesla is a lot harder when its half way across the country.

I get your point, but:

Nearly all of SpaceX's polar orbit launches were/are from Vandenberg Air force base, just north west of Los Angeles.

Ahh interesting, I assumed since a lot of launch sites are over the ocean and east that it was a requirement.
