Around 6 people live in Palenque, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Clocks in Palenque stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −6 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Mexico.
