I am trying to find the village level risk factors for malaria. Therefore, I ran a poisson model in r with the prevalence of malaria(y) as dependent variable, altitude(x1) and Forestation(x2) as independent variable and log of Population(x3) as offset.
glmer(y~x1+x2+(1|cluster), family = poisson, offset = log(x3))
From what I have read, I understand that the interpretation of model with offset is different than a non-offset model.
It would be very helpful, If any one can clear the air on how to interpret the coefficients and exponential coefficient in the above-mentioned case.
Thanks

The offset means "exposure", so when you are calculating a regression with offset, instead of calculating absolute values, you are calculating ratios.
You are changing "number of thefts" for "number of thefts for every 10.000 vehicles"
$y = x1+x2+(1|cluster) + log(x_3)$: This is the equation you are calculating.
I think you are missing a log in $y$ because the offset and the endogenous variable have to form a ratio:
$log(y) = x1 + x2+(1|cluster)+log(x_3)$
$log(y)-log(x_3) = x1 + x2+(1|cluster)$
$log(fracyx_3) = x1 + x2+(1|cluster)$
$log(ratio) = x1 + x2+(1|cluster)$
