Will location preference matter on application?

Curious how the location will affect the application. I was required to rank 3 locations on the application; however, the city I ranked 3 ended up being where I developed the strongest connections and talked to the most people. I ended up talking to most of the office, including most of the seniors, who expressed how I fit well with their culture. Will having them ranked three not allow me to have a first round with their location? Didn't have much success with the 1 and 2 city I ranked.
