STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Martin County, the county that includes Truman, compare with Minnesota and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~31% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#56 of 87 Minnesota counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 36% of the state
| Infection | Martin County | Minnesota | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 178.1 35 cases ▼ 53% | 379.5 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 20.3 4 cases ▼ 85% | 134.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 10.2 2 cases ▲ 17% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | — no data | 6.7 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | — no data | 14.7 | 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 Martin County, chlamydia has fallen from 244.7 to 178.1 per 100,000 (27%), gonorrhea has fallen from 59.9 to 20.3 per 100,000 (66%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 5 to 10.2 per 100,000 (104%).

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 Martin County.
Local HIV snapshot
Martin County HIV care continuum (2023)
Martin County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Martin County residents living with HIV, 75% are in care · 66.7% 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 Martin County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Graf Park anchors the quiet residential grid east of MN 15 the way small-town parks tend to, a place people actually use, surrounded by homes most residents own outright rather than rent. That settled ownership pattern shapes daily life here, but it doesn't make getting tested straightforward. That planning burden falls unevenly on younger adults and people in their late twenties, the group for whom routine screening matters most and for whom spontaneity in healthcare access is genuinely useful. With more than half of local adults in the workforce and unemployment remarkably low, many people here are working consistent schedules that leave little slack for a same-day decision to seek care somewhere down the highway.
The cost side deserves a close look for a specific kind of Truman household. Typical rents here are modest by most measures, but with fewer than one in eight households reaching the $100k-plus income threshold, a clinic visit with out-of-pocket fees can feel like a real line item. The options listed on this page include sliding-scale and low-cost sites worth filtering by fee before making the drive.
Getting there
At 5.63/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Truman 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Minnesota 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.
