Default Active duty placement

I just got accepted in a 3 year Army HPSP scholarship. I know the sites for residencies as it is published online. However, I want to know about active duty. There are tons of military hospitals in the US. Is there anything published about the hospital locations and the spots post residency. For example how many neurologist are needed in XX hospital. I feel like I need this in order to make an informed decision on where can I possibly end up after residency. Does anyone know how post residency placement work? Do you any say on where you will end up? My recruiter said you rank your preference but do they really take this into consideration? I'm not really picky about the location but my fiancé wants to stay close to his family post residency. I know you can get relocated as well. So maybe if we don't end anywhere near his family the first time we can be relocated somewhere we prefer better?
