Just more proof of white privilege, because these short men succeed here in DC only because they are white.
Or they are highly educated and motivated to be successful but sure it’s their skin color.
Ok, racist.
You are to dense to understand the irony of your own post.
NP:yet here you are using the incorrect form of "to/too". Who's "dense" now? You're dense TOO! Sooooo ironic

It's settlement patterns more than anything.

Because short men are disavantaged in careers. They can't get ahead in private companies, so they stick with the govt.
You are so right that there are no private sector jobs here. I was just saying, I wish I could meet a lawyer, lobbyist or defense analyst someday! But I guess I'm in the wrong metro area ..........

Tell us you've never lived in Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, N/S Dakota and Wisconsin without actually saying so.
I'm a native Nebraskan. 5'10" is NBD, truly. 6 ft is uncommon but not rare at all, especially for the under-25 set.

Who knows why!
I live in Bethesda and surely do not see all these short people. In fact, the parents at Visitation or Gonzaga or Prep are over 6 feet tall and the women are pretty tall as well. Maybe it’s an Irish Catholic thing. The shorter people I have met are immigrants. Otherwise, compared to other states I have lived in, the white peoples are just as tall but not as fat.
What about the people who mow your lawn or clean your toilets?
Are they invisible to you??!?
