It’s in the ballpark of .1%. https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/2010/compendia/...

If you’re seeing a lot of women over six feet, you’re either around a lot of Dutch women or they’re wearing elevating shoes (heels, tall flats/clogs.) Or perhaps you slouch. :)

Are tall women evenly distributed? I don't really know, but I wonder if having a hard time finding a partner in small towns would in some way push them towards cities, or something like that. Maybe there's something about the place you live, or the people you tend to be around.

I think that it is easy to think that someone is taller than you that are the same height or even slightly shorter than you.

Also, many women wear heels making them seem taller.

> I see women taller than me way more often than that would suggest

How often do you see women not wearing any shoes? Unless you have a beach lifestyle it can't be that often?

This is why you don't generalize based on personal experiences.

You might be forgetting about the existence of your forehead. Your eyes will look up to a person who is the same size as you.

I am 6’7” and I rarely see people my height, but when I do I have aa strange feeling because I am typically the tallest person in a room. When we are the same height, they feel taller to me because I am not familiar with looking up to the top of someone’s head.
