United States Postal Service (USPS) carrier Elise Malacara has been delivering mail to Carpinteria’s residents for nearly 40 years, 20 of those on a dedicated route through town. She will celebrate her 40th anniversary on April 23, and plans to retire in September of this year.
“What’s not to like (about Carpinteria)? The weather, the people,” Malacara told CVN.
Carpinteria is the only town Malacara has ever delivered in with USPS, though she lives full-time in Santa Barbara with her husband. After moving from Oxnard to Santa Barbara, she began her work with USPS in 1984.
