I have to say that not all subdivisions have restricted access or a guard at the entrance....

Condominium (US) / Housing or residential complex (UK)
I just stayed with a friend in the US in a condominium which comprised a bunch of houses and appartments surrounded by a tall fence and with a security gate requiring a swipe card to enter. We don't really have such things in the UK, but I guess a Brit would call it a "housing complex" or a "residential complex"
