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 Washtenaw Community College held level. The total is unchanged, but the mix behind it is not. Rising: Aggravated Assault (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: 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 Washtenaw Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Aggravated Assault, Arson, Fondling and Motor Vehicle Theft.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Burglary, 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 Washtenaw Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $3,249, Washtenaw Community College's reported average net price is among the lowest reported prices among 138 Michigan colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,263.

- average net price

- 2.5×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $9,090
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $1,940, while those above $110,000 record $11,030 - roughly 5.7 times as much. A published average of $3,249 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 $33,799 - about 10.4 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 31% 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.
