Well... work, quality of life (livability), weather, cost - in the order of your preference.
If I can find a good work In SA - it is my first preference. Tour down under, I want it laid back, simple, pero rock.
God bless sa mga big decisions in life, more to come!

In my case I plan to visit the major cities, at least Sydney and Melbourne, para makita ko lang muna kung saan ko mas gusto ko, like yung sinabi ni @rareking, in terms of cost, livability, weather, and job prospects...
syempre may mga research research na mangyayri before the big move, and although "visiting" the major cities is barely scratching the surface on what the city has to offer medyo magkaka-idea nako...
share ko lang din like nung hindi pa ako nakakarating ng US.. tingin ko, swak sa lifestyle ko ang New York, pero nung makarating nako doon pakiramdam ko masyado syang crowded, yung mga tao medyo____, yung pakiramdam ko hindi ako safe, lahat mahal, and the weather... minsan na ttake for granted ang weather, pero doon na yata pinaka-worse winter na naranasan ko..
Now nung makapag-stay naman ako ng San Francisco, mas nagustuhan ko doon kasi maraming Pilipino, andaming kalapit na States ng CA na maraming mapapasyalan, yung weather malamig din pero very similar to pinas, madaming engineering jobs sa Silicon Valley, etc..
so basically mas preferred ko na ngayon yung isa than the other.. kaya parang ganun din yung ineexpect kong mangyayari sa Oz

Pinaka una sa lahat is kung makakakita kaba ng trabaho na gusto mo dun sa state na napili mo? Correct me if I am wrong, pero dun ata naka salalay lahat. Kung makakita ang isa sa inyo ng magandang trabaho dun sa state na gusto nyo saka palang magbabago ang decision nyo.
Quality of life and etc, secondary na siguro???... pero aanhin mo ang magandang trabaho kung magulo sa paligid?
Madami what ifs kung hindi mo itratry, pero habang try ka ng try eh nagaaksaya ka ng oras.
ang ma isuggest ko, aralin mabuti bago lumipat, then paglipat try nyo obserbahan kung makakapag settle ba kayo, kung hindi saka lumipat sa 2nd best option nyo.
Nung una ako makatungtong sa AU eh sa WA, gustong gusto ko dun, probinsya na kagad after 30-40mins drive from the city, maliit ang city sakto lang. So pagkagaling ko dun nag decide ako mag apply at manirahan sa Au, pero nung nakuha ko na yung PR ko, andito ako ngayon sa NSW at sa ngayon wala pa balak bumalik sa WA ;-) ineenjoy pa ang NSW.

hi red... in my own point of view lang ha....maganda in the sense na CITY xa...hindi regional o outback...nabisita ko na ang Brisbane-Goldcoast, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra...ibat ibang kagandahan ang makikita mo...
Sa first question mo naman na anong state...agree ako sa nag comment na "kung saan may trabaho"
Perth is not my first choice...pero doon may work na nag aantay, kaya doon ako....di pa ako na visit sa Perth...good thing is: same time zone sa Pilipinas and malapit sa Pinas so expected na cheaper airfare compared kung saan ako today.

We've been to Brisbane, and sa 1 month na pagstay at work ko doon, namiss na kaagad namin ang Perth. Parang bumalik lang ako ng SG na crowded na rin ang city. Tapos medyo dry yung weather doon, unlike here in Perth na mainit nga pag summer pero malamig pa rin ang hangin. Pero nagustuhan ko ang Goldcoast, maganda syang pasyalan.
Tama ung sabi nila na iba ang pananaw ng isang turista kapag bumibisita sya ng ibang lugar. Kelangan mo munang tumira sa isang lugar para makita mo ang totoong beauty or kapangitan nito. Even Australian in other states would say, ayaw nila tumira sa Perth kasi bushland daw dito. Pero kung tatanungin mo naman kung nakarating na ba sila dito, ang sagot ay hindi pa. Meron nga isang video sa youtube, pinapakita ng host yung image ng skyline ng Perth at tinatanong yung mga tao sa ibang states kung alam ba nila kung saang lugar yun, wala man lang nakatama kahit isa. Ang sagot nila puro Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne. Hindi kasi nila alam na malaki na ang pinagbago ng Perth from being a bushland to a beautiful city.
Kaya advice ko lang, kung mamimili ng state na pupuntahan, wag ka basta basta maniniwala sa sabi sabi ng iba kasi iba iba rin naman ng preference ang bawat tao. So meaning kung sa kanya umubra ang ganitong situation, don't expect na ganun din ang mangyayari sayo.
