And then there is Fukui, which has come out on top of the "happiest prefecture" "richest prefecture", "most natural beauty" etc etc lists for god only knows how long.
I wish I could help with other prefectures, but as I don`t have THAT much experience outside of this area. My visits to Saitama, Chiba, and Tokyo all sucked to no end. You couldn`t PAY me to live around there.

Thanks for the advice. I'll be exploring my options. Chemical factories? I'm sure that's not good for your health. Then again, I'm sure there's tons of chemicals floating around everywhere. Right now I'm keeping an eye on Shizuoka because this person who has lived there for three years really likes it and can't say enough good things about it. However, what got me interested is that it has easy access to the bigger cities like Nagoya, Kyoto and Tokyo. Check out this link and read her comments and look at her links. She's really making this place seem like heaven.
