Droughts can occur anywhere in Australia. They most commonly occur in areas away from the coast, but each of Australia's states and/or territories are subject to drought conditions. South Australia is the driest state, and droughts are frequent and prolonged in that state, but the central western regions of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria are also subject to terrible droughts.

Yes. There is always at least one region, if not more, that is drought-declared at any given stage.
