new brunswick is a city, and cities in general can be dangerous, but because it's a smaller city i'd say it's less dangerous than say, new york. easton ave is probably the most dangerous street there and there have been a bunch of shootings reported there from rutgers police dept but other than that i'd say the campus is pretty safe, nothing has ever happened to me or my friends on campus.
