Oddly they don't seem to make it easy to determine the overall average (including those pesky other races). Not sure why. Also, wouldn't 64.something inches be 5 foot 4 (and something)? I'm no math whiz, but something seems sketchy about those conversions.

The chart goes on to suggest that 64.2 to 64.6 inches is shorter for Asian females and taller for black and Hispanic females.
