71212

Analysis

NAICS 71212 is the 2022 NAICS industry for historical sites, part of 7121 (Museums, Historical Sites, and Similar Institutions).

It has only one more detailed code, 712120, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.

County Business Patterns counts 1,120 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 11,468 people at an average annual payroll of $41,003 per employee (10th percentile of national industries). 60% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 1% and employment fell 8%. 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.

By establishments it ranks 2nd of the 4 codes at this level within Museums, Historical Sites, and Similar Institutions, with 13.7% of them.
