My two California children were both accepted to Princeton and Stanford. Both went to Princeton. Both loved it, and had very different experiences (straight daughter at Tiger Inn, majored in Psych with Neuroscience certificate, gay son at Terrace, majored in Comp Lit with Creative Writing certificate). The most important differences are a) Princeton is way smaller and more intimate and undergraduate b) Stanford is more highly focused on Silicon Valley. Both are, obviously, fantastic universities. Do you want to try the East Coast? Do it. Otherwise? Don’t;).

Also, CONGRATULATIONS!
