Most likely. There are a few counties in NW Indiana that are on Central time
(the rest of the state is on Eastern) because of their proximity to Chicago.
And back when we didn't observe DST, those counties, plus a few in the
Cincinnati area, *did*, because of the economic connections to those cities.


For that matter, Greenwich England is no longer on Greenwich Time. In
fact aiui none of England is, because they lost 2 hours a day of
commerce with Europe. So they changed to some time most of Europe
uses.
