For example, Palm Springs in the Sonora Desert has a population of about 50K, and Palmdale/Lancaster/Victorville in the Mojave Desert has a combined population of about 400K).

Have you been to an actual desert, such as the Mojave, the Sonora, or the Anza-Borrego?

Mojave Desert seems like a good candidate.
