Sorry to ask such an unanswerable question (that probably gets asked all the time!) but there is so much information on the web I don't know where to start!
Many thanks,
John.

Hi John, welcome to PIO. We were in a similar dilemma, although we are now
almost settled on Brisbane as our area of choice. All I can suggest is research, research, research.
Australia & New Zealand magazine is fairly helpful, as is
Southbound, and if you are anything like us you will be watching anything and evertything to do with Australia on TV, from Billy Connolly to Rex Hunt.
We considered all parameters such as work, climate, housing, shopping, schooling, beaches, etc... It is such a huge decision that you have to do all you can to get it right first time.
Good luck mate,
Paul
