Inagaki (Japanese: 稲垣村 Hepburn: Inagaki-mura) was a village located in Nishitsugaru District in western Aomori Prefecture, Japan.
Inagaki Village was located in central of Tsugaru Peninsula. The area was part of Hirosaki Domain during the Edo period. After the Meiji Restoration, Inagaki Village was created on April 1, 1889.
On February 11, 2005, Inagaki, along with the town of Kizukuri, and the villages of Kashiwa, Morita and Shariki (all from Nishitsugaru District), was merged to create the city of Tsugaru, and thus no longer exists as an independent municipality.
At the time of its merger, Inagaki had an estimated population of 4,846 and a population density of 146.1 persons per km2. The total area was 33.17 km2. The village economy was dominated by agriculture.
