there are lots of online calculators but they aren’t always the most accurate. you can start with one of those and do trial and error basically. if you eat at that calorie amount and lose weight, your maintenance is higher so slowly increase until your weight stabilizes. and vice versa if you’re gaining weight, decrease calories. idk your activity level but I would guess based on height and weight that it’s around 2200-2300, higher if you’re more active.

you could start eating around 2000 and see how your body changes

I workout about 3-4 times a week like lifting and then I’d say run 1-2 times a week

I would think your maintenance is at least 2300 so for a deficit I would eat somewhere between 2000 and 2100. That’s just me guessing though, you’ll be able to tell pretty easily once you’ve stuck to a certain number for a bit and see how you physique and strength change.
