About the time in Buenos Aires
Around 324 people live in Buenos Aires, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 35m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.25, -93.05) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Buenos Aires.
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
