Analysis
NAICS 4412 is the 2022 industry group for other motor vehicle dealers, part of 441 (Motor Vehicle and Parts Dealers). Census lists 32 example activities under it in the official index.
County Business Patterns counts 13,906 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 171,382 people at an average annual payroll of $60,167 per employee (32nd percentile of national industries). 40% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.
By establishments it ranks 3rd of the 3 codes at this level within Motor Vehicle and Parts Dealers, with 11.6% of them.
Across its national industries Census lists 32 index entries; typical ones are camper dealers, recreational, boat dealers, new and used and aircraft dealers.
It splits into 2 more detailed codes. The largest by establishments is 44122 (Motorcycle, Boat, and Other Motor Vehicle Dealers) with 10,934.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 1% and employment rose 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.
