Default Why double space sometimes before & after Paragraph?

Often in Word I will have additional white space immediately above and below
a paragraph. Thus the first or last line will show a larger width then
other lines in the paragraph. If I go to Format Paragraph everything seems
normal such as single spacing and the fonts. What is causing this?

There is Spacing before and after the Paragraph. Check it and change it to
0.
Or, modify the Style and turn that spacing to 0.

Or better yet, learn to use the spacing before/after settings to properly
format your document. You might want to take a look at Rule 3 of "Beginner's
Guide to Professional Word Documents"
