Neighbors inside the Cortland Apartments told ABC13 the complex is quiet and safe.
"It would be kind of surprising to know that this was an intruder, someone that broke into the house because I wouldn't think that would happen here," said resident Field Ledford.
An official cause of death for both Gagnier and Accorto has not been released.
Gagnier had a large following across several social media platforms, including 2.6 million people on Instagram alone.
