Official definition (2022 NAICS)

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in servicing land and subdividing real property into lots, for subsequent sale to builders. Servicing of land may include excavation work for the installation of roads and utility lines. The extent of work may vary from project to project. Land subdivision precedes building activity and the subsequent building is often residential, but may also be commercial tracts and industrial parks. These establishments may do all the work themselves or subcontract the work to others. Establishments that perform only the legal subdivision of land are not included in this industry.

Is a business under 237210 "small"?

Under the SBA size standards (13 CFR 121.201, effective March 17, 2023), a business classified in NAICS 237210 qualifies as a small business if it does not exceed $34 million in average annual receipts. Small-business status determines eligibility for federal set-aside contracts, SAM.gov certifications and SBA loan programs — receipts are averaged over the latest 5 fiscal years.
