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 University of Maine at Farmington fell from 9 to 4 (-56%). The increase shows up in Fondling (1 to 3) and Burglary (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: Rape (5 to 0), Arson (2 to 0) and Motor Vehicle Theft (1 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 University of Maine at Farmington
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 5 Clery Act categories here: Rape, Fondling, Burglary, Arson and Motor Vehicle Theft. Rape accounts for most of them.
The remaining 6 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, 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 University of Maine at Farmington sits on price and outcomes
At $16,857, University of Maine at Farmington's reported average net price is cheaper than 42% among 31 Maine colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,510.

- Maine median
- 1.3×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $9,067
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $13,301 for families reporting under $30,000 against $22,368 above $110,000, a difference of $9,067. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $16,857 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six-year median earnings of $31,513 run about 1.9 times the annual net price. The margin is real but narrow, so how many years of price a student actually pays matters a great deal here.
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.
