About the figures for Saint Lucia

In 2019, the average height of 19-year-old men in Saint Lucia was 176.4 cm (5'9"), and of 19-year-old women 165.5 cm (5'5"), according to the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration's pooled analysis of population studies.

That places Saint Lucia 54 of 200 countries and territories for men and 35 of 200 for women. Men in Saint Lucia are on average 10.9 cm taller than women.

Since 1985, the average for men has changed by +3.6 cm and for women by +3 cm. The 2019 estimates carry 95% uncertainty intervals of 172.6 cm to 180.3 cm for men and 162.8 cm to 168.3 cm for women.

These are modelled means for 19-year-olds, not for every adult: people who grew up in earlier decades were on average shorter at the same age, so the mean across all adults can differ. Half of any population is shorter than its mean and half taller. To see where one height falls, set the "You" figure above or use the height difference calculator.
