STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Jefferson County, the county that includes Dupont, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~40% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#26 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 72% of the state
| Infection | Jefferson County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 350.9 116 cases ▼ 29% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 39.3 13 cases ▼ 73% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | — no data | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 9.1 3 cases ▼ 4% | 9.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | — no data | 15.2 | 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 Jefferson County, chlamydia has risen from 319.8 to 350.9 per 100,000 (10%), gonorrhea has fallen from 123.7 to 39.3 per 100,000 (68%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 3 to 3 per 100,000.
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Jefferson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Jefferson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Jefferson County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Jefferson County residents living with HIV, 82.2% are in care · 75.6% 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 Jefferson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Eleutherian College sits on the edge of Dupont as a quiet reminder of the town's long roots, but the practical geography underneath that calm is less forgiving. That scheduling pressure lands hardest on younger adults still building their lives, the late-teens-and-twenties crowd who make up a disproportionate share of Jefferson County's STI caseload. With labor-force participation running well below full employment and a meaningful share of households earning modest wages, a testing visit competes directly with work hours, childcare, and transportation time.
The town's larger-than-average household size, nearly three people per home, reflects real family density, and in that context a positive result caught early protects more than one person. For residents on the renting side of Dupont's predominantly owner-occupied housing stock, typical monthly rent already claims a real portion of take-home pay. The sliding-scale and low-cost options listed on this page matter concretely for that group: a $913 rent leaves little margin for an unexpected lab bill, and knowing which clinics offer income-based fees before you drive out on SR 7 is worth checking first.
Getting there
At 3.64/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Dupont generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Indiana 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 Indiana, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Indiana 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.
