According to Hong et al (2006), the average size of an intron is 3479 base pairs. However, the average is skewed by some very large introns. A better picture comes from the median size, which is 1334 base pairs. Reference: Hong X, Scofield DG, Lynch M (2006) Intron size, abundance, and distribution within untranslated regions of genes.
