Length and breadth in familiar contexts often tend to connote width. Among 
the 4, dimension is my first choice for its less connotative meaning, but I 
also like extent because it is shorter. Expanse I like too. Scope, sweep, 
limit and reach might be others (also shorter) to consider, maybe reach best 
among them.
