About the time in Hamilton
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:31 and sunset at 08:35 local time, giving 14h 04m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (48.81, -97.45) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hamilton.
Around 60 people live in Hamilton, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
