Just to put another datapoint out there from the "anglo-sphere", Australia and New Zealand are completely metric.
The one exception you could say is height, where in casual speech people sometimes say "6 foot", but if it were a medical situation it would again always be in cm.

In terms of other English-speaking commonwealth countries, it seem South Africa is similar; heights etc. in imperial, everything else metric. That mostly describes the situation in Canada, but as I said construction trades and recipes really push people to have to have a feel for both systems.
