Creighton vs. UoP

Hey everyone. I've received acceptances at these schools and would love advice/input from people at either of the two, or from anyone really! For Creighton, I really like their strong clinical aspect. I have never been to Omaha but I hear it is a cool city. I have an uncle who went there for his DDS and he loved it. I don't know anybody who lives there now, however. With Pacific, my brother in law will be a D3 when I am a D1, so I would get to live close to him and my sister for a year. San Francisco is expensive, and when I went for the interview back in October I wasn't thrilled about the idea of living in a big city like SF for three years.
One final note I will point out is that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church). I am 25 and single, so choosing a place that has a strong population of other members of my church so that I can potentially get married in either location is an important factor I am also considering.
If anyone has any additional comments or suggestions about the clinical experience, how well either school prepares you for getting into a residency, or anything else, I would love to hear it. Thanks in advance!

creighton also has no specialties, so you get to handle more complex cases while in school...

There are not. It varies significantly depending on the area.
