🌍 How Rare Are You in Bangladesh?
🇧🇩 Genetic Landscape of Bangladesh
Bangladesh's genetic profile reflects its position in the Bengal delta — a region shaped by Indo-Aryan, Dravidian, Tibeto-Burman, and Austroasiatic migrations. The country has one of the world's highest B blood type frequencies (~35%), a marker of Central/South Asian ancestry. Despite appearing genetically homogeneous, there's significant variation between Bengalis, the Chakma hill people, and the Rohingya. Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries on Earth, yet genetic diversity remains considerable.

📏 Height in Bangladesh: Men & Women
The average man in Bangladesh stands 165 cm (5'5") — 6 cm below the world average of 171 cm. The average woman measures 152 cm (5'0"), 7 cm below the world average of 159 cm for women. Height follows a bell curve, so every centimeter away from the mean makes you measurably rarer.
| ♂ Men in Bangladesh | Rarity |
|---|---|
| Average (165 cm / 5'5") | Top 50% |
| Tall (174+ cm / 5'9"+) | Top 10% |
| Very tall (179+ cm / 5'10"+) | Top 2% |
| ♀ Women in Bangladesh | Rarity |
|---|---|
| Average (152 cm / 5'0") | Top 50% |
| Tall (160+ cm / 5'3"+) | Top 10% |
| Very tall (165+ cm / 5'5"+) | Top 2% |
Estimates assume a normal distribution with a standard deviation of ~7 cm for men and ~6.5 cm for women, consistent with NCD-RisC population studies.
🧬 What Trait Combinations Look Like in Bangladesh
Rarity multiplies. Even common traits become uncommon once you stack them. Using the distributions above for Bangladesh's population of 173M:
Dark Brown eyes + black hair + B+ blood = 85% × 92% × 32% ≈ 25.0% — ~43.3 million people in Bangladesh (about 1 in 4).
Brown eyes + dark brown hair + AB- blood ≈ 0.0036% — ~6,000 people in the whole country (about 1 in 27,800).
Add height, handedness (~10% of people are left-handed), and an MBTI type, and almost everyone lands below 1 in 10,000. That is the core idea behind the Avortas rarity calculator — try your own combination against Bangladesh and the world.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average height in Bangladesh?
Men in Bangladesh average about 165 cm (5'5") and women about 152 cm (5'0"). Anyone above 174 cm (men) or 160 cm (women) is in roughly the tallest 10% of the country.
How is rarity calculated in Bangladesh?
Each trait's local frequency is multiplied together. Because Bangladesh's distributions differ from world averages, the same person can score very differently here than globally.
Is my rarity in Bangladesh different from my global rarity?
Usually, yes. Traits that are rare worldwide can be common locally — and the reverse. Run the global calculator and compare it with the numbers on this page.
