Toilet Repair in Floral City, FL
Floral City is an owner-occupied town whose housing straddles 1990: 67% of it predates that year, which is where the flush-volume standard divides old fixtures from new.
Short version
86% of occupied homes in Floral City 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. Housing there splits either side of 1990 at 67% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Floral City’s housing suggests
Roughly 67% of housing here predates 1990 and 24% was built from 2000 onwards, so Floral City has both generations in quantity.
Which one is in your bathroom is not something this data can reach. It dates construction, not fixtures, and the two come apart every time somebody remodels.

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.
On an older fixture that is being lifted anyway, ask what the difference is between putting this one back and setting a new one down. Frequently the work is the same and only the part differs, which is the one moment when replacement is worth thinking about.
