STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Vigo County, the county that includes Terre Haute, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~36% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#5 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 95% of the state
| Infection | Vigo County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 569.9 605 cases ▲ 16% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 255.3 271 cases ▲ 77% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 17 18 cases ▲ 95% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 26.4 28 cases ▲ 178% | 9.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 15.1 16 cases ▼ 1% | 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 Vigo County, chlamydia has fallen from 598.2 to 569.9 per 100,000 (5%), gonorrhea has fallen from 323.1 to 255.3 per 100,000 (21%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 6.6 to 17 per 100,000 (158%).
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 Vigo County.
Local HIV snapshot
Vigo County HIV care continuum (2023)
Vigo County recorded 11 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Vigo County residents living with HIV, 63.8% are in care · 58.5% 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 Vigo County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Wabash Avenue cuts through the center of Terre Haute with a directness that mirrors how residents here tend to live: close to the ground, budget-conscious, and working with what's actually available. Nearly half the city rents rather than owns, and typical rents are low enough that most households are managing carefully rather than comfortably, with only a small share bringing in six-figure incomes. That economic texture shapes everything from grocery runs to healthcare decisions, and STI screening is no exception.
Vigo County's STI picture reflects what happens when a substantial chunk of the population falls in the years when transmission runs highest, those late teens and twenties when people are most likely to be forming new relationships and least likely to have routine clinical care. With labor-force participation well below the national norm and unemployment running high, a meaningful portion of residents face schedules that are either overloaded with hourly work or unpredictable in a different way: too much downtime without the employer-sponsored coverage or paid leave that makes clinic visits easy to fit in. Low-cost and sliding-scale availability matters most in a city where tight rent and limited high earners describe the majority of households, not the exception.

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.
