Around 5,398 people live in Velas, 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 Atlantic/Azores is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Atlantic/Azores keeps pointing at Azores time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
