Street lights are not all the same height. That is the short answer. The actual height depends on the road type, road width, traffic flow, pole spacing, and the lighting target at night. On smaller streets, the poles are usually lower to keep light closer to the road and reduce glare into nearby homes. On wider roads, the poles are usually taller so the light can cover a larger area and keep brightness more even from lane to lane.
