It’s definitely true that the majority of students at UNC, which is one of the schools in question, do come from NC. Only 18% of undergrads can be from out of state by law.

And as you may have surmised by this thread there is a bit of a rivalry between UNC and Duke, heightened by tonight’s basketball game!

Not sure what the stats are on in-state vs OOS at Berkeley, but might be worth looking up if that is something that might matter to you.

I think the main thing to do is to try to visit. UNC and UCB are both excellent schools that could get you where you want to go as far as grad school. I would think it would come down to the nuances of the individual programs, $$, and vibes.
