Bertschy, president of Carriage Park’s neighborhood association. “We are surrounded by mountains, and living on the east side is a very comfortable experience. I've been here for 40 years and haven’t had a problem.” According to Bertschy, homes in the neighborhood are well-cared for. Many residents work for the nearby Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and the local city government.
