STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in McLennan County, the county that includes Beverly Hills, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~29% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#14 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 94% of the state
| Infection | McLennan County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 637.4 1,712 cases ▲ 30% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 202.5 544 cases ▲ 15% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 14.5 39 cases ▼ 3% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 18.2 49 cases ▼ 31% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 24.2 65 cases ▼ 45% | 44.3 | 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 McLennan County, chlamydia has fallen from 779.8 to 637.4 per 100,000 (18%), gonorrhea has fallen from 402.2 to 202.5 per 100,000 (50%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 11.5 to 14.5 per 100,000 (26%).

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 McLennan County.
Local HIV snapshot
McLennan County HIV care continuum (2023)
McLennan County recorded 18.8 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among McLennan County residents living with HIV, 79.5% are in care · 69.8% 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 AtlasPlus · 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 McLennan County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Valley Mills Drive cuts through the heart of Beverly Hills, where households averaging nearly four people share space that, between renters and owners split almost evenly, often means a crowded schedule and limited financial breathing room. With typical rent around $905 a month and home values well below regional norms, discretionary spending gets allocated carefully, and a testing appointment can feel like one more expense and errand competing for a packed week. That calculus hits hardest for younger adults: people in their late teens and twenties navigating early relationships, new living arrangements, and whatever work demands come with a participation rate that leaves very little slack. McLennan County's STI figures are worth taking seriously, and the share of Beverly Hills residents in those peak-incidence years is substantial enough that accessible screening genuinely matters here.
Larger households also mean that one person's health decision ripples outward quickly: whether partners, roommates, or family members are involved. The complication is the drive. Knowing that in advance, rather than assuming a quick errand, is what actually shapes whether a screening appointment gets made at all.
Getting there
At 8.7/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Beverly Hills generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
Two things that actually depend on Texas 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 Texas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Texas 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.
