Why do some states in the US not observe daylight savings time and some do?
user
The difference between daylight savings time and standard time is that during daylight savings time, the clocks are set forward one hour.  You would probably need a lesson on time zones to understand this fully.  But I’m not sure what the exact reason is for why some states don’t observe daylight savings time, but I suspect that this is largely a cultural phenomenon.  States that were formed by English immigrants would tend to use standard time, while states formed by Spanish and French-speaking immigrants might use daylight savings time.

Which states don't set there clocks back and forward?

I have not tried to examine this, but I would guess that the eastern states that were formed by English immigrants do not observe daylight savings time, and I think the southeastern states do.  But these are just guesses.  I could be wrong.

I think you are.

I can explain to you how daylight savings time works, but perhaps that’s not useful information for the current conversation?

Do you have specific knowledge of which states do not observe daylight savings time?  Is there something I am missing?
