Toilet Repair in Camden, OH
Camden sits in the middle of both measures — 73% of housing built before 1990, 80% of households owning their home.
Short version
In Camden the split runs 80% owner-occupied against 20% 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 73% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Camden’s housing suggests
Roughly 73% of housing here predates 1990 and 11% was built from 2000 onwards, so Camden 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.
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.
