New Your geocoding process standardized first
When we geocode stuff, 1st step is to standardize.
They just did it for you under the covers.
New Exactly
Come to think of it, I really did need the geocoding.

There is a problem with apartment buildings where on one lot you have 2 buildings with different addresses, but they're really the same. So I counted as possible dupes to review any two that were close. (I used "within adjacent 100' by 100' boxes, so that range was 100-300 feet.) That I couldn't have done without geocoding, but it was only a nice to have anyways. And it obviously doesn't apply in this case.

Cheers,
Ben
