Longest and shortest day are the June and December solstice day lengths at each city's own coordinates. Sun vs. clock is how far mean solar noon falls from 12:00 standard time — negative means the Sun peaks before the clock says noon.

Sunrise and Sunset in Arizona
The 38 Arizona cities listed here span 3.7° of latitude, from Sierra Vista in the south (31.6°N) to Kingman in the north (35.2°N). On the June solstice that puts about 14h 32m of daylight over Kingman against 14h 13m over Sierra Vista — a 19m difference inside one state. In December the gap reverses, and the southern cities are the ones holding more light.
The median Arizona city swings 4h 25m between the solstices against a national median of 5h 16m, so Arizona has a 51m gentler year of daylight than a typical American city.
Seasons bite hardest in Kingman, where daylight swings 4h 45m between the solstices, and least in Sierra Vista at 4h 7m. The table above lists both figures for every city, so you can see where any town falls between those two extremes.
Arizona sits entirely in Mountain Time (no daylight saving). Longitude decides how a city's clock lines up with its Sun: San Luis sits furthest west inside its zone, which puts mean solar noon about 39 minutes after clock noon and gives it the state's latest-running evenings for its longitude.
Each city page carries that city's full profile: today's sunrise and sunset on a live tracker, a twelve-month table of times, the dates of the year's earliest and latest sunsets, the Sun's midday height by season, a golden-hour calendar, clear-sky solar-energy figures, and where the city ranks against the rest of the country.
