Industry sectors used in Lumecon analyses.
Lumecon presents economic activity at the two-digit NAICS sector level because public county and state employment and wage data are generally more available there. This reduces, but does not eliminate, estimation for suppressed and missing values. Open a sector to see what belongs to it, and read why two digits in the methodology.

Farms, ranches, timber operations, fisheries and support services like crop dusting and farm labor contracting.
Oil and gas wells, coal and mineral mines, quarries and the drilling and field services that keep them producing.
Electric power generation and delivery, natural gas distribution, water systems and sewage treatment.
General contractors, homebuilders and specialty trades from electrical to roofing, plus heavy and civil work like roads and bridges.
Plants that turn materials into products: food processing, wood and metal fabrication, machinery, electronics and everything between.
Distributors that sell goods to businesses rather than consumers, from building supplies to grocery wholesalers.
Stores and dealers that sell to the public: groceries, gas stations, auto dealers, clothing and online sellers.
Trucking, air and rail carriers, transit systems, pipelines, couriers and the warehouses that hold freight between trips.
Software publishers, telecommunications, data centers and hosting, broadcasting and media production.
Banks and credit unions, lenders, investment firms, insurance carriers and agencies.
Property owners and managers, real estate agents and rental businesses from apartments to equipment yards.
Engineering and architecture firms, lawyers, accountants, consultants, research labs and IT services.
Holding companies and corporate offices that oversee other establishments of the same enterprise.
Staffing agencies, janitorial and landscaping crews, security services, call centers and waste collection.
Schools, colleges and universities, tribal colleges, training centers and tutoring providers.
Hospitals, clinics, dental and behavioral health practices, nursing care, child care and social services.
Museums and cultural centers, performing arts, sports and recreation businesses, casinos without hotels among them.
Hotels, casino hotels, RV parks, restaurants, caterers and bars.
Repair shops, personal care, religious and civic organizations and similar services that fit nowhere else.
Government at every level: executive and legislative offices, courts, public safety and program administration.
A Lumecon category for tribal nations as operating governments: administration, public services, housing programs, health, education and cultural programs. Tribal enterprises are classified in their own industry sectors; this category covers the government itself.
Tribal Government is a Lumecon category rather than a two-digit NAICS sector. NAICS places American Indian and Alaska Native Tribal Governments in Public Administration (92); Lumecon presents Tribal Government separately because a nation may operate as a government, an employer and an enterprise owner at once. For definitions of the terms used in results, see the glossary.
