I actually don't know the height of a Sim.  Never had a chance to measure one. $%Grinno$%
I am also working on a related chart showing common acreages (farm sizes) in North America in terms of SC4 grid squares.

the height of the sims is something i have been wondering about the past several hours, going by trial an error so far it would appear that they are all 4 meters tall, somebody also mentioned to me that they are around 4.5 meters tall.
I've had this troubling me due to wanting a Monument/Display to not be to big compared to sims but also not be so small to the gameplayer that one would not be able to see the detailing of the display.
