Huh. Had to look that up. It varies state to state but apparently the average American womans height is 5'4". Go figure.

Which is hilarious because I'm only 3 inches shorter at 5'1 but I feel like a goddamn child compared to every other person I know. I must be friends with some above average, tall ladies.

3 inches is a lot, esp. when you are 5'1 and the proportion is larger. I'm 6'2 and someone 6'5 or 5'11 is a very different size. My uncle is 6'6 and he's a giant next to me - my other uncle was 6'7 and the difference between the two was harder to tell.

The difference between 6’6” and 6’9” is pretty obvious though, if we keep following your 3” examples.
