The way I always look at it is to me California Disney is more of something you do as part of a broader trip to California/LA that's going to be 2-3 days of your trip.
Where as in DisneyWorld it's more of an entire experience and it's going to be your entire trip and you need the entire week to get the most of it.
DisneyLand you have the two parks, and really you're going to get more of the classic Disney experience. Most of the classic rides are there, California Adventure has some great stuff you don't get in Florida, and you'll get all the character interactions that you want.
DisneyWorld is more of an entire vacation. You have 4 different theme parks, Disney Springs, and Two Water Parks. Plus a whole variety of resorts that can be an experience in themselves.
Really you need a full week to truly experience DisneyWorld.
My take has always been that if you have young kids, and really just want to get a taste of Disney to see if it's something you enjoy, or if you want to just get some of those Character interactions in with your kids then go to DisneyLand.
Then if you enjoy that go to DisneyWorld when the kids are a little older and will be able to enjoy all the different rides across the 4 theme parks and the water parks.
And if you don't have kids then I think DisneyWorld is the better option too. Just go for the Food and Wine Festival and there are a bunch of great drinks and other experiences you can have as an adult.
