Why Beacon homes need a local read.
Beacon is a former coal town of early-1900s miners' homes just outside Oskaloosa.
Beacon housing runs to early-1900s miners' cottages and small frame homes from the coal years, with scattered postwar infill, across the compact grid of the old Enterprise townsite and the ground toward Oskaloosa, on Southern Iowa Drift Plain loess over pre-Illinoian till, in the county that produced more coal than any other in Iowa.
