I'm a legitimate 5'10" without shoes and whenever I go out to public places, I am the tallest person by at least a few inches 99% of the time. In one of the most diverse cities in the USMaybe your area just skews shorter than average? I'm 5'10 in Los Angeles and frequently see guys that are much taller than me. Like 6'5+ easily
I know a lot of people my height or even slightly shorter will claim they are 6' and I'm just like bruh
