Analysis
NAICS 1133 is the 2022 industry group for logging, part of 113 (Forestry and Logging).
It has only one more detailed code, 113310, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.
County Business Patterns counts 7,261 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 42,916 people at an average annual payroll of $58,215 per employee (30th percentile of national industries). 62% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
By establishments it ranks 1st of the 3 codes at this level within Forestry and Logging, with 91.7% of them.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 9% and employment fell 13%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
