About the time in Prospect
Sunrise today lands at 05:49 and sunset at 06:26 local time, giving 12h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.87, -76.35) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Prospect.
Around 1,906 people live in Prospect, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Prospect sits at latitude 17.87, 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.
