A new search trends study has revealed that New Yorkers are among the most likely in the U.S. to forget when Valentine\u2019s Day actually is.<\/p>\n

Research by cream charger supplier SupremeWhip<\/a> analyzed Google search behavior to find the states in which people are most likely to need a digital reminder before Feb. 14 \u2014 and therefore are the states most likely to forget Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

The data shows that only one state stands well ahead of New York when it comes to searching for the date of Valentine\u2019s Day: Alabama. <\/p>\n

In fact, it ranks in a league of its own \u2014 with far higher search volumes than any other state.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how the top of the list looks based on searches per 100,000 residents:<\/p>\n

After the top five, the figures begin to drop more gradually. Mississippi records 511 searches per 100,000 residents, followed closely by Kansas (507), Arkansas (487), Texas (481), and Iowa (464), rounding out the top 10 most forgetful states<\/p>\n

\u201cValentine\u2019s Day might be the same date every year, but the search data shows plenty of people still need a last-minute reminder,\u201d said a spokesperson for SupremeWhip. \u201cIt\u2019s a clear sign that romance is often planned in a hurry, with many turning to Google just days before Feb. 14.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new search trends study has revealed that New Yorkers are among the most likely in the U.S.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":134519,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":{"0":"post-134518","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-the-bronx","8":"tag-bronx","9":"tag-new-york","10":"tag-new-york-city","11":"tag-nyc","12":"tag-the-bronx","13":"tag-the-bronx-headlines","14":"tag-the-bronx-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134518"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134518\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/134519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134518"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
