Hi @Anonymous, 

 

@lbendlin  is right, you can assign data categories to help Power BI locate.

Also, I have encountered before when using city names or state or location name in map, it goes to other location because of name similarities.

Better if you have the Latitude and Longitude also. It helps.

 

Hope this helps.
