The average height of 17-year old Japanese men is 170.7cm (5’6”) and 157.8cm (5’1”) for women. When it comes to weight, men weigh in with 62.5kg (137.7lbs) and women with 52.9kg (116.6lbs).
Weight, on the other hand, has had its peak between 1998 and 2006 before gradually dropping back down. It is said that this change is because of diet trends and healthy lifestyles that have affected a large part of Japanese society.
Let’s compare Japan demographics to other countries. In the United States, the average for men is 176cm (5’8”) height and 88.6kg (195.3lbs) weight, while women come in at 162cm (5’3”) and 75.3kg (166lbs) (2007 – 2010).
The tallest people in the world are from the Netherlands, where the average for men is 183.8cm (6’) and 169.3cm (5’5”) for women.
