Around 7,311 people live in Chã Preta, 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 05:32 and sunset at 05:24 local time, giving 11h 51m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-9.23, -36.33) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Chã Preta.
