You don't need to be a billionaire to find that attractive. Work remote, have a nice climate and a city that runs efficiently? I'm guessing you'll have lots of people find attractive (I'm one of them).
The question will be mostly whether it's an actual state or more of a vacation/work travel location. If it's an actual state, they'll have to deal with all the annoying stuff, like running their own prison system, running whatever level of welfare programs they want. If it's not, they can just "deport" people and let their home countries deal with them.

If there isn't, you can really only banish them by driving them outside the 200 mile zone and abandoning them there. The "humane" part kind of falls away in that case.
