About the time in Los Ángeles
Los Ángeles sits at latitude 18.75, 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:11 and sunset at 06:47 local time, giving 12h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (18.75, -96.78) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Los Ángeles.
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.
