Specs:
There are lots of cheap a$s single speed / fixed gear road bikes from China. Example: https://www.amazon.com/Kent-Thruster-700C-Fixie-Black/dp/B071JYHJ79/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=fixie+bike&qid=1570022805&sr=8-8
It's hard to tell what's going on with this bike. The way the fork legs have that flat area just under the head tube look like a vintage 70s bike. The rest of the parts look like they're off a cheap fixed gear. See how this fork has that flat area and then the fork legs curve out forward? https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/mint-1972-full-size-campus-green-schwinn-varsity-road-bike-serviced-beautiful-f-s.138742/
It could be recent, but it was more common in the 1970s.
But, to answer your question, no it's not worth it. And we can't tell you if it'll fit you just by looking at it. I would guess it's a 54 or 55cm, which would fit you, but it's just a guess without measuring.

Thanks for the recommendations. I have looked a little bit at craigslist for my area but most of the things in my price range are basically walmart bikes people want to get rid of. Why are you so against the walmart bikes? I also found the same bike listed on amazon if that makes any difference. https://www.amazon.com/Kent-Thruster-700C-Fixie-Black/dp/B071JYHJ79/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=fixed+gear+bike&qid=1554153742&s=gateway&sr=8-6
I also asked my local bike shop if they had anything, and they are fantastic so hopefully they have something.
