Garbage Disposal Repair in Pawleys Island, SC
Attached or detached, a single-family kitchen in Pawleys Island drains through one branch line of its own. 75% of the housing here is single-family, which ordinarily puts both the machine and the blockage in the occupant's hands.
The quick answer
Single-family housing, detached and attached together, is 75% of the stock in Pawleys Island. An attached house shares a wall but rarely shares a kitchen drain, so the disposal is normally the household's own machine to repair.

US Census Bureau, ACS 5-year estimates 2023, table B25024 (units in structure). Based on 12,061 housing units in and around Pawleys Island, occupied or not.
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.
Then the behavior: no response, seized, dripping. Only one of those is urgent.
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.
