How Sexually Diseased Is Your City? Top 10 U.S. Cities with Most STD
Congratulations Montgomery, AL! You are the most sexually diseased city in America!
Here's a list of cities in America with the most STDs per 100,000. The military contributed a lot to this list, I wonder why. Also, I think that "total STD" is higher for bigger cities – but as shown in the Top 10 list, percentage of the population is more significant. If every other person you meet on the street has an STD, that's a problem!
Oh and herpes is not included here, so maybe that's a factor, maybe not.

How RentApplication Collected and Created This Data
The data used here comes from the CDC for 2013, and reflects reports of syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia. (Herpes data is not collected). To normalize the data, we measured rates per 100,000 people. We chose only to show cities with a significant amount of population, so rural counties are not show on this map.
