11. Turner, Oregon
Score: 24
Located in the North-West area of the state, Turner isn’t necessarily what you’d consider a large city. It’s home to less than 2,000 people, according to the 2010 census, crowded in a total area of 1.45 square miles. While back when the census was done, about a third of all households had children under the age of 18, there haven’t really been that many babies landing in town in recent times, indicating that either people were less active, or more careful about protection.
Oregan’s birth rate in 2015 was 11.3%, while Turner had a birth rate that hit 1%. When it comes to the town’s fertility rate, only 1.3% of the women between 15 and 50 years old had a baby in the past 12 months. The city’s median age is 37.4, so it’s not exactly advanced enough to explain the other numbers.
In 2015, in Oregon for every 100,000 people there were 411 cases of Chlamydia, 81 cases of Gonorrhea, and 8.7 cases of Syphilis.
