I'm in the Los Angeles area, so this isn't a completely accurate number, 
but based on your experience level and knowledge, $50-68k would be the 
salary you should probably expect.  I'd imagine though, that in NY your 
expectations could be somewhat higher?  I would hesitate supporting a 
family on that kind of income though...  What about looking for other 
companies in that area?  Just throw your resume out to a few companies 
around there and you could probably find something decent.

On a side note though, spend a couple hours on MySQL indexing / 
optimization :p  It will serve you well.
