How are names matched with the other lists?

  • Same name: the two names are equal after lowercasing, trimming spaces at both ends and reading _ as a space.
  • Similar name: the two names are equal after lowercasing, trimming spaces at both ends, reading _ as a space, writing & as and, and dropping from either name a final s that does not follow another s, or a final es after s, x, z, ch or sh.
  • A list is named under “Similar name in” only when it has no category with the same name. Names are compared by these two rules only: no translation, no fuzzy matching and no AI matching.

Where does this list come from?

This copy has 2,125 codes (20 sectors, 96 subsectors, 308 industry groups, 689 NAICS industries and 1,012 national industries): 20 sectors at the top, up to 5 levels deep. U.S. Census Bureau states “There are twenty sectors included in the NAICS.”; this copy has 20 top-level categories.

Reuse: U.S. Census Bureau (census.gov open data statement): “The U.S. Census Bureau publishes its data as open data, meaning it is freely available for use and re-use by the public.” Read on November 11, 2026. census.gov states this for the data it publishes; the statement does not name NAICS. Reading it as covering the NAICS structure file is an inference. census.gov/naics/ itself answered this machine with a Cloudflare block page, so any NAICS-specific terms there were not read.
