Hiya Busby.
If its high temps that are a problem you might be limited to where you can settle.
Here in Adelaide we do get the heat in summer with the odd few days over 40c as well.We do get the seasons here though.the heat is not that prolonged normally though.You tend to work around it.
It's lovely here at the moment with sunny days up to 25c and then cool,clear nights.
We have a wood burning stove making the house nice and toasty.
You might well look at Melbourne or even Tassie - depends on your work though as well.
