There are definitely opportunities for PVP in highsec, but they are much worse than they used to be.
For aggressors, there are less ways to initiate a fight with cunning, meaning you need to fall back on the sledgehammer of overwhelming numbers and suicide ganking.
For defenders - there's less ways to set believable traps to catch baiters.
As for leaving high - it's one option, but most of the prey is in high.
Shoot everyone. Let the Saviour sort it out.

As for leaving high - it's one option, but most of the prey is in high. CODE and their sort limit themselves because of the prey they are looking to "fight'. Low and WH space are full of adversaries that you can actually fight. Don't limit yourself. Get beyond the ganks and go looking for actual fights. There are plenty of folks out there looking to swap paint and ammo (most of them don't fly covetors). I've been playing straight through since my born on date. I started as empire merc prey. Joined said mercs and had an absolute blast for several years (many thanks to Hans and all the other great folks I flew with). Moved to WH space and never looked back. WH space rich somewhat takes the edge off of the jitters that you speak of, but it's still there. Ditch empire and find a nice small gang wh corp and you'll see it's still a great game.
Low is empty, and (outside C5 and higher) wormholes are pretty empty too. C5/C6 holes require much more preparation to attack.
Prey density is at least twenty times higher in highsec than most of low.
Signed - Someone that would live in low, if doing so was truly viable.
Shoot everyone. Let the Saviour sort it out.

OP wants High Sec to be everything Low Sec already is but won't move to Low Sec because low sec targets shoot back.
I'd rather live in lowsec than high, but lowsec is too empty. Something to do with 'optimal' (i.e. L4 blitzing in marauders, or incursions in shiny boats) highsec PVE being higher reward and lower risk than 'optimal' (i.e. L4 blitzing in MWD/cloak equipped HACs or T3s, or incursions in cheapfit tech 1 hulls) lowsec PVE.

CODE have a different goal to what the OP is wanting - You guys are usually happy enforcing the CODE and don't pretend to want PvP. (Loyal would occasionally leeroy a few ships into us in Rakapas when he wanted proper PvP after a hard day of enforcing the CODE) The OP is basically saying he wants PvP content to happen via PvE. All he has to do is run sites in Low Sec and he will have his wish. Oh yeah.... Hope your BDay night out was fun after you left the Melb meet up.
We do have a wardeccing wing in CODE., although it's a work in progress. Shooting people that shoot back is definitely part of what we do.
