About the time in San Antonio
Around 24,971 people live in San Antonio, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
San Antonio sits at latitude 9.99, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 23m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
The zone identifier America/Costa_Rica is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Costa_Rica keeps pointing at Costa Rica time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
