A term used for almost any town that starts with a "P".
Though I don't know about other p-towns, the one I live in is called that in an attempt to make it seem "ghetto" and not the suburbia it really is.

Portsmouth, Virginia.

Most ghetto city in Virginia but the one with the most pride. People arent ashamed to be from P-Town cause they are known for being tough.

MISSY ELLIOT was born and raised in Portsmouth.
"Man who is that wanna be gansta over there?"

P-Town refers to Portland Oregon.
Because its the biggest city in Oregon it is very popular and many people go there for shopping and such, so it is much easier to say P-Town then to say Portland.
"Hey Im going shopping in P-Town this weekend, wanna go?"

short for Provincetown. a shore-side town on Cape Cod, known for its large, rather vibrant gay community, many interesting shops and galleries, ridiculously crowded streets in summer, and many quaint/quirky little cape-style houses. it's lots of fun, but more enjoyable off-season when the tourists aren't as numerous.
p-town is neat, i've got some friends there.
