STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Marshall County, the county that includes Marysville, compare with Kansas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~18% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#59 of 105 Kansas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 44% of the state
| Infection | Marshall County | Kansas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 201.3 20 cases ▼ 56% | 453.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 10.1 1 cases ▼ 93% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 10.1 1 cases ▼ 25% | 13.5 | 15.8 |

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 Marshall County, chlamydia has risen from 79.7 to 201.3 per 100,000 (153%), gonorrhea has risen from 10 to 10.1 per 100,000 (1%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 10.1 to 10.1 per 100,000.

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 Marshall County.
Local HIV snapshot
Marshall County HIV care continuum (2023)
Marshall County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Marshall County residents living with HIV, 66.7% are in care · 50% 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 Marshall County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Mornings on Center Street bring Marysville's working population past the clinic doors: the same faces who've settled here to build stable lives, raise families, and stay put. That steady rootedness means health records matter; privacy in a town where people recognize each other isn't automatic. STD testing in and around Marysville listed on this page reflects that reality: clinics that understand the value of confidential care without fanfare, and providers who know that young adults moving through their twenties and thirties need straightforward access to screening without theater or delay. The modest cost of living that draws people to stay also shapes what testing looks like here.
Affordable clinics and sliding-scale options exist precisely because residents don't have unlimited budgets, yet routine screening shouldn't depend on having them. Whether you're new to the area, returning after time away, or simply ready for a checkup, the providers available in and around Marysville treat testing as unremarkable. The kind of health maintenance that happens quietly between you and your care. Dargatz Park and Lion's Park anchor the town's gathering spaces; the clinics that serve Marysville are woven just as naturally into daily life.
No appointment requires explanation, no result arrives with surprise notifications, and no test depends on circumstances you can't control. That's the baseline here.

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