I have created a Digital Ocean - App Platform app in the New York region.

When I ping my domain, I get this IP address: 172.67.143.96 and this RTT 13.501ms

enter image description here

If this IP address is actually in New York as I wanted it to be, the ping from London should be around 70ms according to https://wondernetwork.com/pings/New%20York

What could possibly be going on?

As far as I can tell that IP-address 172.67.143.96 is a CloudFlare IP-address and not the actual IP-address of you server.

CloudFlare in turn uses anycast or similar to direct your traffic to a nearby node.
