First off a meteoroid is the name of the debris while still in space. If it collides with the ground to make a crater it has become a meteorite. Now to answer your question size of the meteorite, the structure of the ground it crashes into, Consistency of the meteorite, Speed, Strength of the impact all would factor into the crater.
