They asked my salary range, what should I say?

A recruiter asked for my salary expectations on a first call as I look for work as a bookkeeper. Any experience at all would help. I looked up ranges in Fresno and they vary a lot. How do you research fairly?

Check several sources for pay in Fresno, then pick a range where the low end is one you can live with.

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