Staten Islanders Splurge on Flower Deliveries More Than Most of City: Study

RentHop and Flowers.com. The zip code 10314, which represents Bulls Head, New Springville and Heartland Village, spent a total of $3,068 on flower deliveries since August 2014. An average individual order costs between $70 and $100, according to a RentHop data analyst. The amount was only beat by one other zip code, 10016, which encompasses Murray Hill in Manhattan. Staten Islanders in 10314 weren't just buying and sending flowers; they also received $3,400 worth of flower deliveries from Flowers.com, a total that again only came behind Murray Hill's record. The study also found that the average cost per purchase was highest in Columbus Circle ($126.71), Morningside Heights ($107.74) and the Financial District ($91.99). New Yorkers receiving the priciest bouquets from Flowers.com mostly lived in Brooklyn and The Bronx. Flowers sent to East New York and Cypress Hill cost an average of $89.30; to Hunts Point in The Bronx, $80.54; to Crown Heights, $78; and to Eastchester, $76. The study doesn't take into account flower delivery services other than Flowers.com, such as local florists or bodegas. Romantic souls in neighborhoods with only a few florists and a limited bodega flower selection would be much more inclined to order flowers for delivery than those who walk past floral displays on their street.  ...
