Religious Organizations in Montana

Religious Organizations (NAICS 813110) in Montana reports 4,416 workers across 824 establishments, with $100.4M of aggregate annual payroll flowing through Census CBP 2023 filings. That represents 0.3% of national employment for this industry, a concentration ratio that tells you whether Montana is a primary labor market for this NAICS code or a smaller satellite. A share above 5% signals a meaningful regional cluster; below 1% usually means the state is not a structural fit for this industry at scale. Montana accounts for 0.4% of the national Religious Organizations establishment count (824 of 186,801), according to Census County Business Patterns.

Wage benchmarking is where state-level data earns its keep. The average annual compensation for Religious Organizations employees in Montana is $22,746/yr, versus a national average of $28,701/yr. Montana pays below the national average for this industry, common in lower cost-of-living states or where the industry has a smaller, less specialized local workforce.

Profitability data is only available at the national level because the IRS Statistics of Income program does not publish state-level margin breakdowns. The national net profit margin for Religious Organizations is not reported, and while margins do vary by state, the direction of variance usually follows labor cost and establishment size, both shown above.
