Garbage Disposal Repair in Boulder, CO
Boulder has no dominant housing type, so the local pattern will not tell you whose disposal this is. With detached houses at 45% of the stock, the answer changes from one street to the next.
The quick answer
The housing in Boulder divides between houses and apartment buildings without either taking a clear majority, so the town figure says very little about any one kitchen. Who owns the disposal has to be settled address by address.

|---|---|
| Detached houses | 45% |

| Multi-unit buildings | 45% |

The Colorado average runs 14 points lower, so this town is not typical of its state.
Counted over housing units including vacant ones — the correct universe for a question about building type, and a different one from a household count.
Whose disposal is it
Work out who is responsible before you call anyone. Owners call contractors; tenants call the landlord, and doing it the other way round costs money.
Match what it is doing: silent, humming, jammed, leaking, or smelling.
And before any of that, the thing that prevents most of these calls: what should not go down it. Grease and fibrous waste cause more disposal failures than wear does.
