A City in Southern Dutchess County in which is know to be pot-infested drug addict wasteland full of mostly Catholics that unanimously approve of the usage of Marijuana and named their city "Tree City". They send their kids to public schools that are ranked lowest in Dutchess County. Really religious people send their kids to *Private Catholic Schools* Beaconites are known to be racist to many groups of people they don't prefer. Two being Gays (not Lesbians) and Autistics.
Beacon is often stereotyped to be a picture-perfect Hudson Valley suburb of NYC.
The mayor of Beacon as of June 27th 2010 is hated even by Beaconites, in fact, Beaconites don't know what to say about them. He wanted to close down their on the spot and very helpful Fire Department Engine One, while residents easily signed a petition, and he's done other questionable actions to make life harder for Beacon residents.
Beacon has a grudge held towards it by the Poughkeepsie Journal newspaper. One can see this when articles about Beaconites are written like this fake obituary "Joe Smith, who was from Beacon a lifelong Beaconite, has died in his home in Beacon. He was from Beacon, and went to Beacon schools, and regularly attended games in Dutchess County and Beacon. He was a Beacon wrestler for his JV Beacon Bulldogs team in Beacon High School which is located in Beacon, New York."

*Poughkeepsie resident walks to his car after meeting several Beaconites and having a very rough time at lunch being criticized he's from Poughkeepsie.*
Lifelong Beacon Resident: Where are you from?
Poughkeepsie Resident: Poughkeepsie.
Lifelong Beacon Resident: Lol, dang you guys got lots of problems... wow! I don't like Poughkeepsie.
Poughkeepsie Resident: What's the problem? Every area has good and bad to it--
Lifelong Beacon Resident: Lol, that's *coughs up flem from yesterday night's Friday Night Main Street party and spits while Poughkeepsie resident flinches* ta-- *ahem* that's mad funny, I'm dying *cough*!!! Hahaha, whatever *walks away, socially backs off and coughs a bit more flem up*

a decent sized city in Dutchess County in New York given a horrible reputation by people outside of Beacon. It is a historical site, and once was a center of industry in new york, particularly in the hat making business with the Mattewan family.
Today, it is surrounded by Fishkill and Newburgh, both much less desirable places to live. Most of the activity in the city takes place on Main Street, which runs from the Fishkill creek to Rt.9. the schools are small, but have a lot to be desired, such as a working security dept. there is quite a marijuana and tobacco smoking problem in the city, particularly of adolescents in the school system. These crackheads in training take one step outside of the schools and smoke right next to the schools property and police on stand by who wont do a damned thing about it.
Beacon has several nice areas, but you have to sift through the rest, like the riverfront and east main, which are horrible areas to be caught in.
all in all, if you can sift through the bullshit, Beacon is a pretty nice albeit underrated area in Dutchess County

A small city located in the northern suburbs of NYC. Also called the tree-city, it has many art gallerys and restaurants. Some people say the people in Beacon "hate gays and autistic people, and they only send their kids to Catholic schools..." but this is not true. Beacon is a very nice and welcoming city in which many people visit. Beacon is the almost polar opposite to newburgh which has many gangs and crimes. I love to walk around Main Street and visit the shops. And on the second Saturday of every month, all the gallerys stay open late and put out new items for display.
Hey dude, look at the top definition for Beacon on UD. It says we hate gays and we're super religious.-Matt
looks up from coffee
Dude, that's not right. Beacon is just full of hipsters and
artists. Looks like someone hates trees. Right Dave?-Devin
Pulls off nerd glasses
I'm not a hipster! Yeah yeah sure, trees yeah. Now shush guys, I'm trying to get past this level!-Dave
What are you even playing?-Matt

1) An object, usually a light, that directs attention to a specific place or area.
2) How idiots spell "bacon".

You can't miss the airport, just keep an eye out for the beacons. They're there for a reason.
My wife left me a note on how to make that omelette. I need eggs, cheese, green papers, diced ham and something called beacon.
