Why does my phone show sign in from UTC times I live in CT zone?

On random occasions my phone alerts me someone used your Apple ID to sign in UTC time zone? I live in central time zone US.

IPhone 15 thinks I’m in Chicago When I log on to phone or ipad, I get a warning that someone just logged in from Chicago! I have always lived in Michigan. This has always been a problem with my old phone and ipad as well, now my new 15 is doing it! The time zone is correct, so that’s not the problem. Why Chicago?

Why do I get a caution about a sign in from another city, immediately after attempting to sign in at home As soon as I sign in to the Apple community site on my iMac, I am notified that a code will be sent to my other devices. When I check my iPad for the code, there is a pop up stating someone is trying to sign in from Santa Clara, Calif. (not my location). I have requested the code be sent to my phone, but I don't understand the inaccurate city notification.

You’ll always see UTC, that’s universal coordinated time
