STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Montgomery County, the county that includes Raymond, compare with Illinois and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~25% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#46 of 102 Illinois counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 55% of the state
| Infection | Montgomery County | Illinois | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 267.5 74 cases ▼ 52% | 557.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 133.8 37 cases ▼ 34% | 202.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 3.6 1 cases ▼ 69% | 11.6 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | — no data | 10.9 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 39.8 11 cases ▲ 53% | 26 | 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 Montgomery County, chlamydia has fallen from 357 to 267.5 per 100,000 (25%), gonorrhea has risen from 88.4 to 133.8 per 100,000 (51%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 3.6 to 3.6 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 Montgomery County.
Local HIV snapshot
Montgomery County HIV care continuum (2023)
Montgomery County recorded 25.1 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Montgomery County residents living with HIV, 65% are in care · 62.5% 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 Montgomery County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Raymond Park sits at the quiet center of a town where more than two-thirds of residents own their homes and many have lived on the same street for years, a stability that can make an annual screening feel less urgent than it might elsewhere. That settled quality is real, but it doesn't erase the fact that a meaningful share of Raymond's population falls in the years when chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis spread most readily: young adults still sorting out relationships, often without established primary-care habits. Two features of daily life here shape what "convenient testing" actually means.
First, nearly a third of households rent, often on budgets that leave little margin: at typical local rents, an unexpected clinic bill lands differently than it does in higher-income zip codes, so knowing which listed options carry low or no fees matters before you drive anywhere. The options listed on this page include sites reachable along that corridor, and filtering by hours before you go saves a wasted trip. If Veterans Memorial Park is already part of your weekend, that's a reasonable landmark for orienting yourself to the closest listed clinic and confirming same-day availability by phone.
Getting there
At 5.49/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Raymond 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 Illinois 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 Illinois, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Illinois 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.
