For an Australian territory, Macquarie Island is the worst of the worst. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macquarie_Island#Climate 315 rain days, one of the lowest sunshine totals in the world, and a record high of 14C. Atleast Campbell Island is a bit warmer  |

How long would I have to stay, and do I get to go on holidays? A better idea would be to exile Daniel Andrews there for life, he can play his communist games with the penguins. |

You have to stay 365 days in a row to get 1 million dollars if you leave on the 364th day you get nothing, 730 days to get 2 million dollars etc Also the moment you leave prior to having been there less than a year Andrews gets a pardon...  So would you make it a full year or two? |

I can do the 2 years, buy 4-5 investment properties then spend the rest of my days sitting on my ass drinking beer and eating KFC while trolling city data  |

I'm sure you have plenty in Fiordland and on the South Island West Coast mate Yeah they might be extremely wet.....but I would hardly say there unliveable. Anyways, I would take the SI West Coast anyway over Invercargill So would I despite my dislike of high rainfall. |

I'm pretty sure there aren't any unliveable climates here, but the least liveable would probably be Invercargill  . What about Campbell Island? So unliveable that nobody actually does live there en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell_Island,_New_Zealand Sun data is wrong. Average annual is close though a few hours high but summers are sunnier and winters much cloudier (!). Average June tally in last 30 years of operation was only about 6 hours, and only 5 hours for the last 19 years - lowest tally 1.3 hours. |

I think that for Italy I should look for places at high altitudes on the Alps. The highest town in Italy is at about 2000 m of altitude so, roughly, I would say that higher altitudes are not easy places to live in (the highest you go, the worst it is). The problem is to find some reliable climatic data for places at that altitude, let's see... the problem is that both the highest and the second highest towns don't have an official weather station  Paganella (Trentino region, altitude 2129 m)
This is an example of official weather station on the Alps. It is not that cold after all, I think that the fact that no one lives at those altitudes (in Italy) can also be related to "practical issues" (in particular during snowy winters). Monte Cimone (altitude 2173 m, from the northern part of Apennines)Monte Rosa, altitude 3488 m (obviously no one live in there, but that's the highest official weather station in Italy) |

Maybe some high altitude climate somewhere?
People live in some quite harsh climate like Alert, Eureka, etc.

The higher elevations of the Alps (as Urania mentioned), and the Apennines above 5,000 feet elevation or so, even if mostly uninhabited.

They're pretty well all shittier than Darwin. LOL.

Unlivable climates in Australia are easy to find if you allow external territories. Places such as the previously mentioned Macquarie Island, along with the Heard and McDonald Islands and especially the Australian Antarctic Territory. No wood to make fires, no arable land for growing crops; which means that hunting animals is the only way to stay alive. However, you have no fire to cook the meat nor able to stay warm with the extremely strong winds on the coast. That is why tropical island climates are more liveable- at least you get to have a fire to cook raw meat!

The thing is, Darwin is pretty rainy during the wet, and it will be terribly muggy. Not to mention, it's also a capital city, so I guess more people will know it. But the southern areas of the Top End, I believe, will be more inclined to have drier heat and, in turn, would feature refreshingly pleasant nights during the "winter" (or dry season) - Such as in your Ngukurr example (I'd still prefer that over Darwin). Darwin is kinda like Singapore (which means it is relentlessly hot), only that it has a wet and a dry season. |
