Take-home pay by prefecture

National income tax, the reconstruction surtax, local inhabitant tax, and mandatory shakai hoken (pension, employment, and health insurance) are all effectively uniform nationwide, so gross salary and take-home pay work out the same across all 47 prefectures at the same salary — see each prefecture's own page for the one real exception (health insurance) and what genuinely differs about living there. Figures are shown natively in Japanese yen.
