Check your competitors content size. Always try to give more than them (not less than 1000 words) and don't think about Keyword density. Just use keywords as natural.
 
I have exactly 0 "articles" on my homepage mostly. Maybe a few sentences of content and that's about it. And yet I rank. Miracles.
 
Depends on the niche, look what your top ranking competitors have. If I want to rank subpages then homepage has necessary information for user experience. If I want to rank the homepage itself, I use around 1000 words article optimised for my keywords.
 
If I rank keyword in homepage, I write more than 1000 words.
 
There is no pre-defined length for the content of homepage. Just think, how you can serve more information, with fewer words. You can prepare a homepage with a little introduction and just links to other pages. This way it will be a minimalistic yet impactful homepage. Otherwise, you can feed in the whole article just as your competitors do.
 
do you want ur homepage to rank for anything other than your brandname?
YES - create optimised article

NO - make it link to last 20 posts with unique excerpts
 
In my opinion, it depends on your competitor and your niche. First, you need to view your competitors who have high ranks and check on their homepage but I suggest a minimum of 1000 words will do.

1st you check your top competitor home page, you get some idea about the content Lenght, According Panda algorithm article is best quality, unique and Not use difficult language, Used at least 1000 words article and depends on your website.
 
It depends on your competitors. Try to found out how many words they have. 1000 words should be enough, but don't overdo it with keywords.
 
It's better to have more than 1000+, first the content is the key for your home page, Seth the good content, words doesn't matter.
