I have 2626 individuals with 934 place names. That gives me a ratio of about 2.8 : 1. You ration with 4500 is about 3 :1. So I don't find it too unreasonable. Where did you get the 25000 place names? That seems a very high number to me unless there were a lot with information other than place names. For example did you have a lot of place names which included street names some other type of comment included in the Place name field? Did you resolve any place names recently?

Can't remember the specifics, and may just be thinking of another file entirely.

Well, I went back and looked at another file I have. 130,000 individuals, and 31,000 places. Also, I am working on resolving the place names, so the 31,000 will go down. Guess 1 unique name per 4 individuals is about right.
