Toilet Repair in Bee Spring, KY
Bee Spring sits in the middle of both measures — 53% of housing built before 1990, 74% of households owning their home.
Short version
In Bee Spring the split runs 74% owner-occupied against 26% rented. That makes responsibility a matter of your own address rather than the town's pattern, and it is worth settling before anybody is called out to the property. Housing there splits either side of 1990 at 53% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Bee Spring’s housing suggests
Bee Spring straddles the line: 53% of its housing units were built before 1990, when the Energy Policy Act of 1992 set the 1.6 gallon maximum, and the rest since.
So the housing stock genuinely does not predict the fixture here, and the date inside the tank lid is worth more than any figure on this page.

What is actually wrong with it
Which of these is it? Running continuously, not flushing at all, flushing weakly, leaking at the floor, or moving when you sit on it. Each has a different cause and only one of them is urgent.
Two questions are worth asking whoever comes: which part they tested before reaching a conclusion, and whether anything under the fixture needs attention. The second one is what separates a repair that lasts from one that repeats.
