Toilet Repair in Nokomis, FL
About 51% of homes in Nokomis were built before 1990 and 86% of households own theirs, so the fixture could be either generation and the repair is yours.
Short version
86% of occupied homes in Nokomis 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 51% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Nokomis’s housing suggests
51% of Nokomis’s 13,139 housing units were built before 1990. EPA puts pre-standard toilets at 3.5 to more than 5.0 gallons a flush against 1.6 for anything built to the standard.
In a town this evenly split the age of the house is a weak guide, and it is the age of the house rather than the toilet in any case.

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 what happens to the floor. A leak at the base has usually been going for a while by the time it is visible, and whether the subfloor and flange are sound is the difference between a seal replacement and a return visit.
