A city within California's 562 area, where many old people live. Many believe it to be ghetto, and refer to Downey as D-town. It includes the original Taco Bell and the world's longest-running McDonald's. The Krikorian is the town's only movie theater. Downey's main shopping centers are the Stonewood Mall and the Downey Landing. There is a long-standing rivalry between Downey High School and Warren High School in the town. Downey is surrounded by Bell Gardens, Pico Rivera, Santa Fe Springs, Norwalk, Bellflower, Paramount, Compton, Lynwood, and Southgate.
The Carpenters and James Hetfield of Metallica came from Downey.
Let's go check out the old cars at the McDonald's in Downey Friday night.
Dude, there's nothing to do here in Downey. Let's go to one of the town's sixteen donut shops.
The Downey-Warren Game is tonight! Let's go give dirty looks to opposing fans at In-n-Out and do it again afterwards at Norms.

A Downey is a guy who always tattles on people over the littlest things that could get someone in trouble, no one respects them or enjoys there presence.
Guy: Hey I'm going to dress up as Hitler at school tomorrow.
Girl: Be careful, there are a lot of Downeys at our school.

George Lucas' high school alma matre, the home of the Downey Ducks. He renamed Downey High School, Dewey High School in American Graffiti to avoid lawsuits.
Downey students like to think they're Downey Knights, but that just doesn't have the same ring to it as Downey Ducks, and students at all the other schools around them don't let them forget it!

Downey is also known as "d-town" and is smack dab in the middle of some of so-cal's ghettoest cities....pico rivera...bell gardens...compton....south gate.....etc.... It was inevitable that these ghetto cities would start rubbing off on downey...
The once clean and safe Downey is now infested with cancers of human society that start with d. Drugs, Drama, Dumbasses, and Damn Chunts.... Everony is either doing drugs or tagging or going to shows.... Downey is a very lame town... I suggest you not to move here or you'll regret it....

a person who engages in the horrific act of targetting young, retarded children for sexually explicit purposes. This person develops an interest in both the appearance and vulnerability of children with autism or down-syndrome. Unfortunately, a "downey" successively manipulates a dis-advantaged child into playing with his or her genitals before the inevitable penetration. Downeys are severe predators.
person 1: I am terrified for my child. I appreciate the special attention he is receiving from his teacher, but I'm not sure what the "complex" treatments after school are all about?
person 2: Well if I were you, I would look into it. I mean there are a lot of sick people out there. God forbid hes a downey.
