  I am trying to find the option in my “General” settings to change my time zone, but I don’t see anything about choosing which city I live in. I have site title and tagline fields, a language option, site visibility, and related posts. Nothing about time zones or cities. I feel like I’m missing something?!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General. There you select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu and then click “save changes”.

  Can you please post a screenshot? I’m not seeing the option for selecting a city in my view–I’m in general settings, but see nothing about a city.

  Are you logged in as Admin https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog?

  If you are then go here http://singleservingsmackenzie.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  There you will see:
  Site Title
  Tagline
  Timezone
