Our Sun is a little larger than "average", but it is nowhere near "very large". I would have to say that our Sun is the perfect size for us.
When I was growing up, the astronomy books taught that our Sun was smaller than "average". But things have changed considerably as our telescopes have improved; we can now detect vast numbers of dwarf stars that were invisible to us 50 years ago.
So including all of the tiny little star-lets, the Sun is bigger than the new, lower average.
