About the time in Cantera
Around 22 people live in Cantera, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Cantera sits at latitude 17.43, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 37m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
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.
