Sample of 12 campuses from the plot (sorted by enrollment). Source: U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey + IPEDS enrollment. Rate = on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students; lower is safer-reporting, not a personal-risk forecast.
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Allan Hancock College fell from 12 to 4 (-67%). The increase shows up in Motor Vehicle Theft (1 to 2). Falling over the same period: Burglary (9 to 2), Fondling (1 to 0) and Rape (1 to 0).
This describes reported incidents, not crime. Clery counts move with reporting policy, awareness campaigns and how a campus staffs its security authorities, so a rise can reflect better capture of reports and a fall can reflect worse capture. One year of movement at a single campus is not a trend.
What actually gets reported at Allan Hancock College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft, Fondling and Rape. Burglary accounts for most of them.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Incest and Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter. Under the Clery Act that zero is an affirmative report that nothing in the category occurred, not an absence of data, which is why the table below lists those rows rather than dropping them.
Counts describe incidents reported under the Clery Act for the on-campus geography. Reporting practice varies between institutions, so counts are not a direct measure of relative safety.

Cost context
Where Allan Hancock College sits on price and outcomes
At $5,383, Allan Hancock College's reported average net price is cheaper than 9% among 492 California colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $20,161.
- $5,383
- average net price
- $20,161
- California median
- $4,649
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $3,970, while those above $110,000 record $8,619 - roughly 2.2 times as much. A published average of $5,383 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $33,531 - about 6.2 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 27% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
