Perth has the highest per capita percentage migration from the UK, compared with the eastern states of Australia.

Perth feels a lot nearer to the UK (especially with the non-stop flight from London, 17 hours vs 24 with a layover to Sydney) than the rest of the continent. It's 7 hours ahead rather than 9 which I think makes a difference too.
