Prince George's Community College increased from 5 to 7 reported on-campus incidents between the 2023 and 2024 reporting years in the U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey.
This is a change in reported incidents, not a measure of individual safety. Enrollment, reporting practice, and category coverage can affect the count.

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 Prince George's Community College rose from 5 to 7 (+40%). The increase shows up in Motor Vehicle Theft (0 to 1) and Robbery (1 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 Prince George's Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Robbery, Motor Vehicle Theft and Aggravated Assault. Burglary accounts for most of them.
The remaining 7 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 Prince George's Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $8,672, Prince George's Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 7% among 67 Maryland colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,140.

- average net price

- Maryland median

- six-year earnings to median debt
- $5,665
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $7,314, while those above $110,000 record $12,979 - roughly 1.8 times as much. A published average of $8,672 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 $37,482 - about 4.3 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.
