History

A post office called Salitpa has been in operation since 1855.[2] The community took its name from nearby Satilpa Creek. An error in writing the name (crossing the L instead of the T) when applying for a post office resulted in the name being changed.[3]

Notable person

Salitpa was the home of Ray Prim, a minor league baseball star in the Pacific Coast League with the Los Angeles Angels from 1936 to 1942, again in 1944 and in 1947.[4]
