Below is the list of tables from the database along with their columns and datatype. Need to generate an accurate SQL query for the question.
Only use the columns present in the respective table. Only use the columns which are required to generate the SQL query. Only use table joins if required and not otherwise.

### Tables ###
TABLE: CREATE TABLE table_name_24 (population INTEGER, area__km_2__ VARCHAR, density__pop_per_km_2__ VARCHAR, rank VARCHAR)

### Question ###
What is the average population of the region with a density less than 487, a rank of 9, and an area larger than 377,944?

### Accurate SQL ###

SELECT AVG(population) FROM table_name_24 WHERE density__pop_per_km_2__ < 487 AND rank = 9 AND area__km_2__ > 377 OFFSET 944
