Sewer Line Repair in Jeremiah, KY
Whoever owns a property in Jeremiah owns the lateral under it, out to the main. On iron, what that ownership eventually costs is decided at the bottom of the pipe. There are 313 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1985 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
Corrosion along the invert is what a cast iron lateral does, and cast iron is the likely material beneath Jeremiah, whose housing typically dates from 1985. Lost bore reads as a blockage, and rodding does not restore it.

What went in the ground around 1985
A lateral laid in Jeremiah in that period is most likely cast iron on the house side and early PVC beyond it. Cast iron corrodes along the bottom of the pipe, so capacity is lost gradually rather than suddenly. More on cast iron laterals.
What a camera survey should settle here
On cast iron the recording should dwell on the bottom of the pipe, where corrosion channels and scale collect. The full picture on cast iron laterals.
