Hi,
The place and and the admin2 for LaSalle, Il should be written without a space
http://www.geonames.org/postalcode-search.html?q=la+salle%2C+Il&country=US
See wikipedia article
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaSalle_County,_Illinois
Thanks for looking into these

I fully agree with the adm2 LaSalle county. This will be fixed.
For the city I find a lot of refereces with the spelling La Salle.
Examples:
- The website of the city is mainly using the L a Sallle variant (
https://www.lasalle-il.gov/
)
- usps is using La Salle:
https://tools.usps.com/go/ZipLookupResultsAction!input.action?resultMode=2&companyName=&address1=&address2=&city=&state=Select&urbanCode=&postalCode=61301&zip=
I have the impression both variants are used with La Salle being used more often (usps and the city itself).
