Sunrise today lands at 06:37 and sunset at 07:20 local time, giving 12h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (22.23, -104.09) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Cangrejo.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal El Cangrejo day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
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.
