For start, "residents only" gate is for me clearly access=private. "manned main gate" - is access strongly restricted? If nearly everybody, including vehicles, is let in I would tag it access=yes. It would also mean that access=destination would be better than access=private for inner ways of community. If access is strongly filtered (entrance requires permission from resident or guard is likely to resuse) then I would tag both gates access=private. Though it means that these gates are again not distinguishable. In Poland many gated communities are blocking only cars (to protect limited parking space) so I tag it as vehicle=private, bicycle=yes as both pedestrians and cyclists are let in by guards without restriction.
