Salary expectations: how do you answer? after 17 years as a barista

I do not know whether to give a range or ask for theirs. Thank you in advance. I looked up ranges in Jacksonville and they vary a lot. Does giving a range hurt?

Asking about the range for the role first worked for me. Some recruiters share it.

I gave a range based on local postings and said I was flexible depending on the whole package. They did not push back.
