Heart rates vary considerably based on a variety of factors including age, fitness level, body type, and activity level.
Most people use the 'resting heart rate' as a guide. Take your pulse when you are sitting down, and have been relaxed and inactive for about 10 minutes. Your resting heart rate could be anywhere from in the 50's to 100.
An average, healthy, 23 year old male should have a resting heart rate that is less than 80. If it's higher, then a little regular cardio exercise should be in your future.
