If there are two wifi networks in range that both have the same SSID, security type, and password, is there any available ID to distinguish between them? Is there a way to get that ID in android?

Go to Start, and select Settings > Network & internet > Wi-Fi > Show available networks, and see whether your wireless network name appears in the list of available networks.
Your choice for your home or business will come down to three: Wireless G, N or AC. Routers that only support Wireless B are no longer manufactured.
You might have a dual-band router. Dual-band routers operate on both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz frequencies. To do so there are actually two separate radios in the router, one for each band. The 2.4Ghz band is the older of the two and has to share the band with other common devices such as cordless phones.
You can absolutely have two networks in the same household. While most homes will use two WiFi networks built within a dual-band WiFi router, you might also add a second router to your configuration in an effort to achieve a more robust solution.
You can distinguish them through BSSID - if someone won't assign fixed MAC address they will have for sure different (unique) MAC addresses.
Also they can be on different channel. I think it's impossible if two networks have same SSID, same channel and same BSSID.
