Garbage Disposal Repair in Kingston, NY
Kingston has no dominant housing type, so the local pattern will not tell you whose disposal this is. With detached houses at 53% of the stock, the answer changes from one street to the next.
The quick answer
No housing type leads in Kingston: detached houses are 53% of the stock and apartments take much of the rest. Whether the disposal is your appliance or the building's therefore depends on your own address rather than the local pattern.

| Manufactured and mobile homes | 4% |
US Census Bureau, ACS 5-year estimates 2023, table B25024 (units in structure). Based on 16,914 housing units in and around Kingston, occupied or not.
Against New York as a whole that is 24 points higher — a real gap rather than a rounding one.
The Census counts this one across all housing units, vacant ones included, so read it as the shape of the local building stock.
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.
The symptom does most of the diagnosis here. A motor that hums without turning is the most common call and often the easiest thing to clear.
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.
