STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Yakima County, the county that includes Naches, compare with Washington 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.
#2 of 39 Washington counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Yakima County | Washington | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 743.1 1,907 cases ▲ 110% | 354.4 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 141.1 362 cases ▲ 9% | 129.6 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 51.4 132 cases ▲ 141% | 21.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 32.3 83 cases ▲ 158% | 12.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 54.6 140 cases ▲ 138% | 22.9 | 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 Yakima County, chlamydia has risen from 638.8 to 743.1 per 100,000 (16%), gonorrhea has fallen from 231.8 to 141.1 per 100,000 (39%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 8.2 to 51.4 per 100,000 (527%).

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 Yakima County.
Local HIV snapshot
Yakima County HIV care continuum (2023)
Yakima County recorded 8.3 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Yakima County residents living with HIV, 87.8% are in care · 79.4% 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 Yakima County tests for syphilis.

The combination of established families and younger adults moving through their twenties and thirties means sexual health needs are real and varied here.

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