MKMap zoom to include annotations and region

Question

I am trying to set the zoom level of the map to include just the annotations, but also don't zoom below say a 3 mile radius, but I also don't the annotations touching the side of the screens. Further, I would also like the annotations once zoomed to be within the bottom half self.view (my map takes up the entire screen).

I tried the following two ways and neither works.

// #1 ///// Always zooms to show my annotation in Texas, zoomed out to far I can't even see US states

-(void)zoomToFitMapAnnotations:(MKMapView*)aMapView {

if([aMapView.annotations count] == 0) {
    return;
}

CLLocationCoordinate2D topLeftCoord;
topLeftCoord.latitude = -90;
topLeftCoord.longitude = -180;

CLLocationCoordinate2D bottomRightCoord;
bottomRightCoord.latitude = 90;
bottomRightCoord.longitude = -180;

for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in self.mapView.annotations){
    topLeftCoord.longitude = fmin(topLeftCoord.longitude, annotation.coordinate.longitude);
    topLeftCoord.latitude = fmax(topLeftCoord.latitude, annotation.coordinate.latitude);

    bottomRightCoord.longitude = fmax(bottomRightCoord.longitude, annotation.coordinate.longitude);
    bottomRightCoord.latitude = fmin(bottomRightCoord.latitude, annotation.coordinate.latitude);
}

MKCoordinateRegion region;
region.center.latitude = topLeftCoord.latitude - (topLeftCoord.latitude - bottomRightCoord.latitude) * 0.5;
region.center.longitude = topLeftCoord.longitude + (bottomRightCoord.longitude - topLeftCoord.longitude) * 0.5;
//Add a little space on both sides
region.span.latitudeDelta = fabs(topLeftCoord.latitude - bottomRightCoord.latitude) * 1.1;
//Add a little extra space on bith sides
region.span.longitudeDelta = fabs(bottomRightCoord.longitude - topLeftCoord.longitude) * 1.1;

region = [aMapView regionThatFits:region];
[self.mapView setRegion:region animated:YES];

}

// #2 ///// This works best, but it zooms in to much; right on top of a house, if there is only one annotation, but I want to see the one annotation and a 4 mile radius. So I never want to zoom less than having 4 square miles shown, UNLESS the user manually zooms it.

MKMapRect zoomRect = MKMapRectNull;
for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in self.mapView.annotations)
{

    MKMapPoint annotationPoint = MKMapPointForCoordinate(annotation.coordinate);
    MKMapRect pointRect = MKMapRectMake(annotationPoint.x, annotationPoint.y, 0.1, 0.1);
    zoomRect = MKMapRectUnion(zoomRect, pointRect);
}
[self.mapView setVisibleMapRect:zoomRect edgePadding:UIEdgeInsetsMake(300, 300, 100, 300) animated:YES];

  MKMapRect zoomRect = MKMapRectNull;

    for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in self.mapView.annotations) {
        MKMapPoint annotationPoint = MKMapPointForCoordinate(annotation.coordinate);
        MKMapRect pointRect = MKMapRectMake(annotationPoint.x, annotationPoint.y, 0.1, 0.1);
        if (MKMapRectIsNull(zoomRect)) {
            zoomRect = pointRect;
        }else{
            zoomRect = MKMapRectUnion(zoomRect, pointRect);
        }
    }
    if (zoomRect.size.width == 0.10) /* for single annotation available in map */
    {
        zoomRect = MKMapRectMake(zoomRect.origin.x, zoomRect.origin.y, 100000, 100000);
    }

    [[self mapView] setVisibleMapRect:zoomRect edgePadding:UIEdgeInsetsMake(50, 50, 50, 50) animated:YES];
