A useless number. Average means nothing. Your calorie requirements are totally determined by your size, metabolism, and activity level.
A small sedentary woman might get by on 1500, while I have to have 3500 to maintain my weight during triathlon season.

2250.
Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.
Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.
U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.

About 2000 is suggested;-} to maintain weight.
That's for an average size & activity level.
