Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 21 MA 2-year peers in this comparison, Cape Cod Community College is larger than 45% and safer-reporting than 25% - the smaller, higher-reporting quadrant. Axes are within-sample percentiles so outliers share the same frame; a higher safety percentile means a lower Clery incidents-per-1,000 rate.

What actually gets reported at Cape Cod Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 6 Clery Act categories here: Fondling, Rape, Aggravated Assault, Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft and Robbery.
The remaining 5 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Incest, Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter and 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 Cape Cod Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $8,296, Cape Cod Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 9% among 117 Massachusetts colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $24,402.

- average net price

- Massachusetts median
- 3.3×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $6,526
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $8,253, while those above $110,000 record $14,779 - roughly 1.8 times as much. A published average of $8,296 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 $39,296 - about 4.7 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Just 22% complete within six years. A completion rate this low means the typical enrolled student leaves without the credential, and cost figures should be read in that light.
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.
