Incorrect map location
I'm having a similar problem for city names. It's putting Las Vegas in Spain, not Nevada.
Try to provide more info in the column. For example, "Las Vegas, Nevada" or "Las Vegas, Nevada, USA". And categorize the column as City.

I am not getting the following two cities to map correctly:
Springfield, Missouri, USA
Columbia, Missouri, USA
Regardless if I combine city, state, and country into a single field and categorize it as City, or have separate fields with their own respective categories, the locations are not being mapped correctly.
When combining them into a single field neither one shows up on the map. Separate fields places Springfield in Illinois and Columbia in South Carolina.
After further testing, I was able to get the two cities to map correctly when combining city, state and country into a single field as shown above and setting the category to either Place or Continent. Neither seems appropriate, but they worked.

Changing my data category to "Place" worked for me. Thanks!

do you add "U.S.A." to zip code for clarification purposes? What data category do you use for zip, and/or zip, country?
thanks in advance.
