Toilet Repair in Hebron, OH
Hebron is mixed on both counts: 64% of its housing predates 1990, and 75% of households own rather than rent.
Short version
In Hebron the split runs 75% owner-occupied against 25% 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 64% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

Who this page is for in Hebron
About 25% of households in Hebron rent. For them the fixture is part of the property and the repair is the landlord’s; for the 75% who own, it is a straightforward decision about a part.

What the age of Hebron’s housing suggests
Hebron straddles the line: 64% 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
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.
