Toilet Repair in Hudson, CO
In Hudson, 85% of households are owner-occupiers and just 45% of the housing was built before 1990 — so a pre-standard fixture is the exception here.
Short version
85% of occupied homes in Hudson are owner-occupied, so a failed toilet there is almost always the occupant's own to repair and the occupant's own to pay for. Nothing has to be cleared with anybody before the work is arranged. Most of the housing there postdates 1990, so a 1.6 gallon fixture is the likely one, and age is rarely the explanation.

What the age of Hudson’s housing suggests
45% of Hudson’s housing predates 1990 — a small share. Most homes here were built under the 1.6 gallon maximum, so the fault is far more likely to be a part than the fixture.
As everywhere, this dates the house. A toilet can be replaced with an older one, and occasionally is.

What is actually wrong with it
Work from the symptom rather than the fixture. Continuous running has a ten-minute test that settles it; water at the base is identified by when it appears rather than where; and a handle that does nothing is visible the moment the tank lid is off.
Ask them to name the fault before they name the price. “The toilet needs replacing” is not a diagnosis; “the flapper seat is pitted and will not hold a new flapper” is, and it happens to be a common one.
