They asked my salary range, what should I say? (Toledo)

I have been out of work for 2 weeks and feel pressure to accept less. There are 10 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I looked up ranges in Toledo and they vary a lot. Does giving a range hurt?

Check several sources for pay in Toledo, 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.
