Analysis
NAICS 513199 is the 2022 national industry for all other publishers, part of 51319 (Other Publishers). Census lists 51 example activities under it in the official index.
Census lists 9 related activities that belong elsewhere, most often in 513110, 513120, 513130 and 513140. Businesses that do several things are classified by their primary activity, the one that generates the most value, so check those boundaries before settling on this code.
Its index entries, the activities Census uses to assign businesses to this code, include art print (except exclusive Internet publishing) publishers, art print publishers, art print publishers and printing combined and art publishers, among 51 in all.
For example, businesses known as newspaper publishers are classified in 513110 (Newspaper Publishers) instead.
County Business Patterns publishes no national count for it, either because the code is out of the survey's scope or because the figures are suppressed to protect individual businesses.
