Can anyone explain how gymnastics regional sites are assigned?

NCAA website says "The championship provides for a field of 36 teams determined based on their national qualifying score. Teams 1-16 are seeded by the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Committee and the remaining teams are placed geographically at one of the four regional sites. Included in the championship field are also 12 all-around competitors and 64 individual event specialists (all of whom are not on a qualifying team)."
But this doesn't explain how the top 16 teams are actually assigned to the 4 sites. Can anyone give more insight on how it works?

They are clearly asined based on the comite choosing those teams to be there. Pretty simple actualy

I could be wrong, but i think its somewhat similar to the CFP to where the sites are in a rotation from year to year

They are seeded strictly based on their final average score and not their record, I do know that.
And the top 16 are seeded based on an S-curve. So 1, 8, 9, and 16 will be at one regional for example.

I also think you have to bid on being a host.

This is correct. Baton Rouge is hosting next year, I'm pretty sure. They seed the hosts normally 1-16 then for the next 16 they try to seed by location. Sometimes in the top 16, seeding can also change to keep a seed at their own host site. I don't know how play-in or single gymnasts are done.

Man, I’ve been thinking about this all week, I hope we figure this out

That's what I was trying to find out. And which regional site gets which set of seeds.
The sites are listed as:
Utah
Washington
Alabama
Penn State
So will Utah get 1, 8, 9, 16?
Washington get 2, 7, 10, 15?
Alabama get 3, 6, 11, 14?
Penn State get 4, 5, 12, 13?
Or do we not know which site gets which set of seeds at this point?
I live in PA. Just trying to figure out if there is any chance the Tigers will be at the Penn State regional.

There are 4 regional host sites with 9 teams each. The top 16 have true seeding (essentially: 1, 8, 9, 16 at site A. 2, 7, 10, 15 at site B. 3, 6, 11, 14 at site C. 4, 5, 12, 13 at site D). The other 5 teams are the teams ranked 17-36 nationally and they get placed at the site geographically closest to them.
As for the 4 sites, the locations are predetermined a few years in advance. If the host team is in the tournament, they get to compete at home. (Generally, you won’t get to host unless it’s VERY likely you will be in the tournament). If multiple host teams are not in the tournament, then the highest seeded “non-host” gets to compete closest to home. If only one host team is not in the tournament, the obviously the group with no host teams will be placed there. If there are multiple host teams scheduled for the same site, they can bump a team up or down 1 spot in the rankings to get teams to compete at home.
