STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Genesee County, the county that includes Batavia, compare with New York and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~24% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#37 of 62 New York counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 40% of the state
| Infection | Genesee County | New York | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 226 130 cases ▼ 60% | 558.4 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 81.7 47 cases ▼ 65% | 235.6 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.2 3 cases ▼ 65% | 14.8 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 1.7 1 cases ▼ 93% | 23.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 27.8 16 cases ▲ 10% | 25.2 | 29.5 |

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Genesee County, chlamydia has risen from 217.5 to 226 per 100,000 (4%), gonorrhea has risen from 65.1 to 81.7 per 100,000 (25%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 1.7 to 5.2 per 100,000 (206%).

Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Genesee County.
Local HIV snapshot
Genesee County HIV care continuum (2023)
Among Genesee County residents living with HIV, 51.6% are in care · 45.3% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Genesee County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
West Main Street runs through a residential stretch where ownership and renting split almost evenly, a mix that shapes daily life in ways the numbers on this page only hint at. For the many households paying rent around $730 a month, budgets are tight enough that an unexpected cost, even a modest clinic fee, can quietly become a reason to postpone something important. Add a labor-force participation rate that leaves a meaningful share of adults outside standard nine-to-five schedules, and you get a community where the timing and cost of a screening appointment genuinely determines whether it happens at all.
That matters especially for the younger adults and people in their late teens and twenties living near parks like Pringle and Kibbe, the portion of Batavia's population moving through the years when STI transmission is most common. With fewer than one in five households earning six figures, the sliding-scale and low-cost options listed on this page are not a convenience but a practical necessity for many residents.
Getting there

Two things that actually depend on New York law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).
In New York, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
New York permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.
Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
