The city's economy runs on logistics, media, payments and consulting, which is who you are most likely to be calling. A hub city in every sense, with head offices that run their meetings on Eastern time and expect the rest of the country to follow.

The dates that most often break a cross-border schedule are Thanksgiving (fourth Thursday of November, with the Friday), Independence Day (4 July), Martin Luther King Jr. Day (third Monday of January) and Christmas Day (25 December). Expect slow replies during Thanksgiving to New Year.
