摘要: When Civil Engineering spoke to representatives of the design communities in Los Angeles, Dallas, and Houston - the three cities atop ASCE's list of the Best Places for Civil Engineers 2023 - several key themes emerged. These included good weather, growing economies, diverse populations, and ever-expanding lists of major infrastructure projects recendy completed, in the works, or being planned. And while these cities can also face major challenges - from hurricanes and floods to earthquakes - the local civil engineers expressed an optimistic, can-do spirit that helps them consider whatever problems they encounter as opportunities to find innovative engineering solutions. ASCE uses three key factors to determine the Best Places for Civil Engineers: salaries in the designated region, the number of civil engineering jobs available there, and the local cost of living. The salary data came from ASCE's annual member salary survey. The job availability data were analyzed by Madgex Inc., of Hoboken, New Jersey, based on the number of civil engineering jobs available from June 2021 to June 2022 in each metropolitan statistical area. The cost of living data were provided by the Council for Community and Economic Research, known as C2ER, based in Arlington, Virginia. C2ER calculated a composite index by examining data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Expenditure Survey, which focused on six common expenditure categories: groceries, housing, health care, transportation, utilities, and miscellaneous.
