What's the best publicly available general resource for determining market value for job and experience (I understand multiple things play into this like location, specific marketplace, specific type of job)? I've checked out glassdoor, payscale and the bureau of labor and statistics. Only BLS seems to be worth a drat, but it's only good for entry-level and mean/median wages as far as I can tell. I work in engineering, and I know what the municipal/County side pays based on experience since it's public record. Is there a good multiplier that I could use to determine the private consulting side for the same work? Short end is, I know my job experience/skills exceeds that for someone with my X amount years in the industry. I'm looking to leverage that in the second half of this year.

I do have some numbers from former classmates, as well as some information from a former employer. Just looking to supplement that. Especially since I'm thinking about relocating to a different part of the country, whereas most of my information is central to one state.

Subset of Civil, Water/Wastewater/Water Resources. Colorado (greater Denver area) or Texas (Dallas or Austin) for locations. The Denver area would seem to be particularly competitive in water/wastewater since at least one major company is HQ there, with big operations for a bunch of other civil firms. I can relocate to each area as I know people who will put me up while I look, and I'm trying to gauge my best way to go about it. Failing that, I want to leverage my experience at my current firm where my salary is lower than average.
