The Volunteer State brings campus safety up a notch
Tennessee may be more well known for its college athletics, but there’s another ranking students can count on while they’re on campus. Tennessee is home to around 80 colleges and universities; here are the top five safest in the state.
Considering out-of-state options? YourLocalSecurity.com team put together the nation’s top 25 safest schools in America, so you are informed no matter where you go.
Methodology
To determine the safest colleges in each state, we analyzed Uniform Crime Report and Campus Safety and Security data for schools that meet the following criteria:
- 5,000+ students enrolled
- Two- or four-year degrees offered
- Public, private, or non-profit institution
For the three crime factors, the rate reported has been compared against the population per 1,000 people within the city limits. The lower the rate, the lower the number of crimes reported in that category:
- Violent crimes per 1,000 people
- Property crimes per 1,000 people
- Hate and VAWA (crimes against women) crimes per 1,000 people
Interesting Findings
- Although it landed in fourth place overall, Middle Tennessee State University scored the lowest in violent crime with a rate of 4.2.
- All five ranked schools are public institutions.
- Sister schools, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville and The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, scored low for violent crime rates for a student body population of over 20,000. Knoxville scored a 6.7, and Chattanooga scored a 10.7.
- Out of the five ranked schools, our number one school, Austin Peay State, has the largest crime prevention roster, offering ten different programs.
