Made me look at average heights around the world. More evidence that Nobody should expand search criteria to overseas and/or Asians.
Average height for women worldwide
Quote:
Here are some worldwide trends in height for women aged 18–40 from the website World Data:
The average height of European women is 5 feet 6 inches.
In many parts of Asia, including China, the average woman’s height is about 5 feet.
The average height for women in North America is slightly below the average for women in the U.S. Average heights for women in the U.S. and Canada are the same, while the same average in Mexico is just below 5 feet 2 inches.
According to the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), the shortest average heights for women are recorded in South Asia and Guatemala, at under 5 feet.
