Analysis
NAICS 8134 is the 2022 industry group for civic and social organizations, part of 813 (Religious, Grantmaking, Civic, Professional, and Similar Organizations).
It has only one more detailed code, 813410, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.
County Business Patterns counts 24,698 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 201,423 people at an average annual payroll of $31,334 per employee (5th percentile of national industries). 57% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 4% 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 3rd of the 5 codes at this level within Religious, Grantmaking, Civic, Professional, and Similar Organizations, with 8% of them.
