Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 30 AZ 2-year peers in this comparison, Pima Community College is larger than 97% and safer-reporting than 28% - 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.

Enrollment scale
How campus size shapes the safety figures
With 16,283 enrolled students, Pima Community College is the 277th largest of the 5,585 institutions in this dataset with a reported enrollment, ahead of 5,308 of them. Closest same-state same-level scored peers by enrollment: Mesa Community College (0.47/1k); Chandler-Gilbert Community College (0.20/1k); Phoenix College (0.94/1k); Estrella Mountain Community College (0.20/1k); Arizona Western College (0.11/1k); Scottsdale Community College (0.00/1k); Eastern Arizona College (0.38/1k); Central Arizona College (0.79/1k). The score above normalizes 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students, so compare it with similarly sized campuses instead of treating a higher raw count as evidence that a campus is less safe (Western Kentucky University is the nearest similar-enrollment comparison on this profile).
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Pima Community College fell from 4 to 3 (-25%). The decrease shows up in Burglary (4 to 3).
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 Pima Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft, Rape and Arson.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, 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 Pima Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $3,405, Pima Community College's reported average net price is among the lowest reported prices among 81 Arizona colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $20,834.

- average net price

- 4.9×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $7,010
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $2,605, while those above $110,000 record $9,615 - roughly 3.7 times as much. A published average of $3,405 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 $34,622 - about 10.2 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.
