Sunrise today lands at 06:19 and sunset at 07:29 local time, giving 13h 10m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (32.88, -87.74) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Akron.
Around 337 people live in Akron, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
