Apart from the fact that its actually a lot of fun living in sydney, there are lots of jobs that either don't exist or at best very scarce outside of Sydney (or the capitals in australia). Granted a primary school teacher has a reasonable chance of getting work anywhere there may only be a handful of schools nearby whereas if you live in sydney you could be within commute of 100+ schools and dramatically increase your chance of casual work. Couple that with more chance of getting work as an electrical engineer.
