About 1500 for me per chain.
I think a lot may depend on the area you live in. My routes are through countryside where the dirt that washes onto the roads is from arable fields of heavy boulder clay. On wet days, that means the chain is being sprayed with water containing a fine grinding paste of colloidal clay particles which easily get into the chain links and pins, wearing them down. A coarser sandy soil may appear to be more gritty and abrasive but the particle sizes are larger and not as effective at getting into bearing contact areas.
This is only an educated guess on my part, though.
