Why daylight changes throughout the year in Mexico City
Mexico City sits at approximately 19.43° latitude, in the Northern Hemisphere. The Earth's 23.4° axial tilt causes daylight to vary with the seasons. In summer the Northern Hemisphere tilts toward the Sun, lengthening the days; in winter it tilts away, shortening them.
What this means for daily life
Mexico City has a mild seasonal swing of about 2.3 hours. Daylight doesn't change dramatically through the year, which is one of the perks of being close to the equator.
