Campus size vs reported safety rate

Among 37 NY 2-year peers in this comparison, CUNY LaGuardia Community College is larger than 92% and safer-reporting than 69% - the larger, safer-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 CUNY LaGuardia Community College fell from 3 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in Aggravated Assault (3 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 CUNY LaGuardia Community College

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Aggravated Assault and Rape. Aggravated Assault accounts for most of them.

The remaining 9 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Burglary, Fondling and Incest. 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 CUNY LaGuardia Community College sits on price and outcomes

See New York's cost ranking

At $6,120, CUNY LaGuardia Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 9% among 326 New York colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,940.

reported income-bracket spread

Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $5,269, while those above $110,000 record $12,745 - roughly 2.4 times as much. A published average of $6,120 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 $33,219 - about 5.4 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 25% 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.
