    New York Nonprofit Data

    How many nonprofits are there in New York?

    Follow the links below for information about the size and scope of the nonprofit sector in New York City, State, and Metropolitan Statistical Area. The New York City data is from the 2019 IRS files, the State and Metropolitan Statistical Area data is from 2016. You will find out how many nonprofits there are, where they are located, what industries they work in, and what their annual incomes are. You will also find links to relevant reports and other analyses of the nonprofit sector in New York.

    In the PDF file below, created in conjunction with Nonprofit New York, is the 2019 data on the locations, industries, and sizes of the 46,214 registered nonprofits in New York City.

    New York City Nonprofit Data [PDF]

    Total New York State registered nonprofits: 102,645 (all 501c)

    New York State at a glance

    The top five counties/boroughs in New York State that house the greatest number of nonprofits are Manhattan, Brooklyn, Nassau, Queens and Suffolk counties, with Manhattan leading the way with over 20,000 nonprofits. There are only some 4,300 health care nonprofits throughout the state yet those nonprofits report a total revenue well over $100 million, over double the total revenue of the second biggest service field (education). Only 0.36% of all New York State nonprofits are above the $100 million/year bracket yet these nonprofits bring in more than $172 million in annual revenue. In contrast 73%, of all nonprofits in New York State report annual revenues of less than $100.000 per year, or do not report revenues (organizations with an annual revenue of less than $50,000 and many religious organizations are not required to submit full tax returns)

    New York Metropolitan Statistical Area (NYMSA) at a glance

    62% of all NYMSA nonprofits are located outside New York City. However, the total revenue reported by New York City nonprofits is over 3 times greater than the reported total revenue of every other NYMSA county combined. Manhattan (New York, NY) has over 20,000 nonprofits, less than half of the second biggest county, Brooklyn, New York. But the total nonprofit revenue reported for Manhattan nonprofits is over 6 times larger than the second largest county nonprofit total revenue with a total revenue over $126 billion.

    Technical Note on the Data
    The data on this site has been extracted from the national IRS Exempt Organizations Business Master File using the NCCS Table Wizard. These provide public access to the information reported to the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) by nonprofit organizations in their annual tax returns (Form 990 or equivalent). The accuracy of data depends on the accuracy of reporting to the IRS and on the accuracy of the machine-read extraction and publication. The data can be considered a good indicator of the size, location and work of New York nonprofits, but not a 100% accurate documentation.
