Question: are rug sizes in inches?
Answer: Regardless of where you buy area rugs, the standard sizes are usually the same. Small rugs are usually less than 5′, medium rugs measure between 5'1″-8'6″, and large rugs are between 8'7″-12′. If you need to cover a large area, like a basement or open living room, choose an extra large rug that measures more than 12′.
