Printable US Time Zone Maps

The United States of America is a wide country. Measured along the parallel of latitude that passes through West Quoddy Head, Maine, the easternmost point in the United States, the maximum width of the conterminous 48 states is 4421 km (2747 mi). Because of this, it spans 7 time zones.

As you will see from our printable US time zone maps, the time zones are not divided by vertical straight lines, but are drawn to reflect state boundaries and areas of large population. The time zone boundaries are designed to cause the least disturbance by splitting cities and large urban areas.
