ALWAYS negotiate! Identify areas from the job description where you can showcase your experience & expertise and correlate it to your request for additional compensation. Take the time to draft a well thought out counteroffer at your desired salary(or slightly over to allow for negotiation). The worst they can say is no, but often the only time for true salary negotiation is when first entering an organization.
Try to make the case for yourself for why that company should pay you more. Specific skills are experience you can highlight for the role. If they are solid on the number, try to be open to other benefits you could negotiate on.

Always negotiate!! Try to leverage data to justify the slightly higher ask
It's worth a shot to try to come up a little. When you pulled the larger minimum salary, did you factor in years of experience, location, education, etc , or did you just go with what Glassdoor gave you? It may be worth going to Salary.com and entering in YOUR specific specs for a better, more realistic comp before countering their offer.
