About the time in Santiago
Around 451 people live in Santiago, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:22 and sunset at 06:59 local time, giving 12h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (18.64, -99.64) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santiago.
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.
