<p>There is a link on that page to a PDF of crime statistics for all three campuses (Newark, Camden, and the largest, New Brunswick–they are in different parts of the state).</p>
<p>The campuses of all three are patrolled pretty heavily. Townwise, Newark and Camden, are, well, Newark and Camden. Not garden spots. New Brunswick has its gritty areas but also a pleasant downtown that’s reasonably safe. I wouldn’t walk around alone there at night, but few places are that safe anymore.</p>
