"The Cost of Dying"

High costs of funerary services in the United States

The chart depicts the correlation between the average cost of dying (discriminating between the costs of direct cremation, immediate burial, and full service funeral) and location. To this end, the costs of dying are depicted for ten U.S. cities in order to divulge price disparities based on location within the United States.
