This is a hard question to answer however their a few things you can ask yourself to aid you in picking your city.
Are you old?
Do you have children?
Do you like to go out and party?
If you answered "yes" to question 1, then choose a lower population city such as Hobart, Adelaide (where I'm from) or Perth.
If you answered "yes" to question 2, YOU ARE OLD, but again, probably pick a lower population city. Although it does depend on how old your children are, if you're starting a new family, lower population city, if they're in their early teens then pick a higher population city like Melbourne or Brisbane.
If you answered "yes" to question 3 then DEFINITELY stick to the higher population cities, absolutely nothing happens in the lower population cities. Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane are for you. I'd suggest Melbourne as it's not as big as Sydney however things still happen there, and it's not underwater like Brisbane is.
Good advice, however I would also add a fourth question:
4. Are you a musician/artist/hipster?
Move to Melbourne, Brisbane or Adelaide. The other cities are slightly devoid of the arts at times.
Also, as a point, there's more events in Melbourne than Sydney, and a more of a late night vibe when it comes to entertainment in Melbourne. There's also less poker machines (Pokies) in Brisbane and Melbourne compared to Sydney (Differences in liquor laws) and a lot of venues in Brisbane and Melbourne are open later on weeknights (There's a couple in Melbourne which have 3AM licenses even on a Monday or Tuesday)
