Beacon Hills, California – Teen Wolf
The majority of Teen Wolf’s action takes place in the mystical town of Beacon Hills, where supernatural creatures seem to outnumber the humans 100:1 by my best guest and the town’s infrastructure has everything from a veterinary clinic to a nature preserve to an abandoned mall all within a bike/car ride of each other—but that’s a topic for another article.
Beacon Hills is a little difficult to pin down as the series makes very few mentions to any real world counterparts, but the basic geography and climate of the city probably rules out a majority of southern California (desert/beaches) and northern California (rural and flat). In season 6 episode 11 “Said the Spider to the Fly,” Malia Tate’s flight would depart from San Francisco International Airport, indicating that the town is nearby San Francisco. Meanwhile a zip code shown in the episode “Silverfinger”—95351—strengthens this theory as the code corresponds to suburb of Modesto.
