Niue.

Queenslanders are boorish; South Australians are boring. Matter of personal preference, really.

Do you mean Nauru?
Niue is a dependency of New Zealand in Polynesia (New Zealand took over those British colonies that didn't want independence, except for some reason Pitcairn.) Over half of Niue islanders actually live in New Zealand rather than on Niue these days. IIRC NZ's ethnic structure is something like 82% White, 10% Maori, 6% other Polynesian. (And the appropriate racial slur for a new arrival from Polynesia is "fob".)

It's also ultra-socially conservative. From what I understand the island is completely dry, no alcohol allowed at all, and fishing is illegal on Sundays.

Anyway, probably ACT if what hugh says is true, what are the laws like? To find out more, I'll probably have to research on where the best strip clubs are.

The best would either be Sydney or Melbourne, Melbourne would have a better average. The ACT...not sure; but they'd probably be alright if few. As I said, it's a lot more suburban. I think the ACT would better suit opebo; but I think Brunswick, a suburb of Melbourne, is designed for you. You have to catch a tram into the city (10 mins.) or over to St. Kilda (20 mins. with good connection) for the strip clubs, but it would be your kind of place. Maybe, Fitroy or Northcote. You'd be inner north, anyway.

Well you know what I think of suburbs. I'd just live in Melbourne proper.

Australia has lots of Vietnamese, but I don't know what areas they're in.
