Everywhere i go in the internet i meet only sentence about "average" but is it the same as a median? If not what is the real median
-
Height follows a normal distribution, which means that the average and the median are the same. As for 5'9'', that would be considered slightly below the median in some countries, about the median in other countries, and even a little above the median in yet another set of countries.
-
Depends totally on the country like the poster above said. A 5'9 guy in my country, where the average is 5'7... is considered tall in here.
-
It’s average in the U.K.
I’m from Ireland where the average height is 5’7
Hawaii is 5’7 so there 5’9 would be considered tall so yea it varies from country to country .
Put it like this in Germany and Holland it’s actually below average I believe their average height varies between 5’11-6’0 in males and 5’7-5’9 in women so I’m guessing we all wish we were either German or Dutch on this forum.

I'd say it's reasonable to consider it average, you're not short, you're not tall, so, average. If you feel short I recommend you to leave forums where people talk about height, on these you'll find out that average height nowadays is 6'5...

5'9 is average and definitely higher than world median which is lower because of high population of earth is in Asia.

Man the discussion makes no sense without realizing relevant standards of diff. countries.

Yeah. 5'9 is above average if we're talking about our species as a whole.
-
Yep, i'm 6ft and more the more tall 80% of places
-
I am 6 feet 1 and from Germany. Feel slightly taller than the average.
-
More than this 90% of all places. Is very hard see 6'1 to up in Brazil. I see just one today. And i most tall except this...
-
To feel "tall enough" in a company young white guys nowadays, someone need to be around 6 ft 1(185 cm) at lowest

Absolutely true.

Emmm Many people just depended on status spread on the web to put out their opinions about this discussion.
I dont wanna be like this.I havent even gone abroad so I wonr easily judge whether it is medium.
But id tell you nowadays Chinese senior school students are almost around this height.I see it in my eyes cuz I was one of them.
All in all 176 may be a medium height among Chinese senior students I think. ???
