Depends on where you look: $ ls -li /usr/share/zoneinfo.default/US/Pacific /usr/share/zoneinfo.default/America/Los_Angeles 1152921500311900257 -rw-r--r-- 3 root wheel 2819 Oct 9 2019 /usr/share/zoneinfo.default/America/Los_Angeles 1152921500311900257 -rw-r--r-- 3 root wheel 2819 Oct 9 2019 /usr/share/zoneinfo.default/US/Pacific $ ls -li /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific 56302834 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2819 Oct 21 20:45 /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles 56302650 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2819 Oct 21 20:45 /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific Deborah?

For what it's worth, /usr/share/zoneinfo.default and /usr/share/zoneinfo are on different file systems: $ df /usr/share/zoneinfo.default Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/disk1s1 15633066472 21990936 11080851032 1% 488348 78164844012 0% / $ df /usr/share/zoneinfo Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/disk1s2 15633066472 4497237704 11080851032 29% 11077044 78154255316 0% /System/Volumes/Data
