What does itp mean?
'Inside the Perimeter' — meaning within I-285, the highway loop that rings Atlanta. ITP is the real city: walkable-ish, denser, where the culture lives. Used as identity, not just geography.
"She's ITP, she ain't driving an hour to meet you in Alpharetta."
Origin
Local Atlanta usage since I-285 was completed in 1969; the ITP/OTP divide hardened in the '90s–2000s as Atlanta sprawled.
