In the 20th century in American every 20 years both children and adolescents grew about an inch and a half. There was a time when it was expected that the children were to outgrow their parents. “In terms of stature we’ve pretty much maxed out. Over the last generation there has been little change in height”, says an anthropologist, William Leonard, at Northwestern University. The average American’s height has hit the ceiling so to speak. In the past 50 years height has stabilized and the average American men’s height is about 5 feet 9 inches and for women its 5 feet 4 inches.
