Around 72 people live in Mata Francés, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.

The zone identifier America/Panama is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Panama keeps pointing at Panama time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
