I prefer boots in the 6 to 7" range. I seldom need to cross streams where these aren't high enough. It's dry here in the fall.
My preferred brand is Keen. As I've got older, the balls of my feet have spread and most brands aren't wide enough. Keens are wider in the ball area and fit me great. I can't compare them to others for quality but for my fit, they're the best I've found.
