What Avon is built of
Most of the housing here is in buildings rather than houses. That makes the disposal a building fixture in many cases, and makes a recurring clog a building problem rather than a household one.

US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25024, 2023 5-year release. The universe is 9,432 housing units, including vacant, in and around Avon.
That is 40 points lower than Colorado as a whole, so the state pattern would mislead you about this town.
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
Before anything else, settle whose machine it is. In an owned home it is yours; in a rental it is usually the landlord's, and calling a contractor yourself can leave you holding a bill you did not need to pay.
From there it is the symptom. Water under the cabinet is the one worth acting on today; the rest can wait a day without getting worse.
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.
