Sun rises and set due to rotation of earth. As sun moves from equator length of day increases or decreases depend upon which hemisphere sun is i.e. deceleration of sun. Length of the day rapidly increases towards the pole. As per your question it depended upon your position w.r.t. latitude. If you are close to pole length of the day increases more than if you are close to equator.
