GATES, N.Y. -- A senior living facility is accepting applications in the Town of Gates.

The Villa Capri held a grand opening ceremony for its luxury senior housing complex.

The facility has 87 total units and has options available for tenants under the age of 55.

"It's beautiful because they're brand new, nobody ever lived here so you make it your own. We kind of like a beach look because if we had our choice we'd be living on the beach," said Fran Nardone, a resident.

"Gates has one of the highest per capita senior populations of any suburb in Monroe County. This is very much needed for our town and our unique population," said Greg Benoit, Gates Chili Chamber of Commerce president. 

Villa Capri is one of four senior living facilities in Gates.
