Toilet Repair in Voorhees, NJ
Voorhees is mixed on both counts: 73% of its housing predates 1990, and 63% of households own rather than rent.
Short version
Tenure in Voorhees is close to even, at 63% owner-occupied and 37% rented. Where a home is rented the fixture is usually the landlord's to repair, so the lease decides who arranges the work and who is billed for it. At 73% pre-1990, the housing gives no strong steer on flush volume, which makes the tank label worth a look.

What the age of Voorhees’s housing suggests
Roughly 73% of housing here predates 1990 and 14% was built from 2000 onwards, so Voorhees 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.
