Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 37 CO 4-year peers in this comparison, Colorado State University Pueblo is larger than 56% and safer-reporting than 39% - the larger, 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.

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 Colorado State University Pueblo rose from 5 to 7 (+40%). The increase shows up in Burglary (0 to 3), Aggravated Assault (0 to 1) and Rape (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: Motor Vehicle Theft (5 to 2).
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 Colorado State University Pueblo
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 5 Clery Act categories here: Motor Vehicle Theft, Burglary, Rape, Aggravated Assault and Robbery.
The remaining 6 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Fondling, 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 Colorado State University Pueblo sits on price and outcomes
At $10,051, Colorado State University Pueblo's reported average net price is cheaper than 16% among 67 Colorado colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,052.

- average net price
- $17,052
- Colorado median
- 2.0×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $3,484
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $9,374 for families reporting under $30,000 against $12,858 above $110,000, a difference of $3,484. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $10,051 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $43,053 - about 4.3 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly.
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.
