History
Inagi Station opened on 18 October 1974 as a stop on the newly built Keiō Sagamihara Line, intended as the city-side gateway to the developing Tama New Town. The platforms occupy a curve in a cutting through the Tama hills, with a footbridge-style station building above. Because the surrounding district lay outside the formally designated new-town area, neighbourhood services around the station only filled in slowly; the modern Keio Litonade Inagi commercial complex opened on 7 July 2006, and that same day the station was made step-free. A subtitle naming Komazawa Women's University as the nearest campus was added in April 2015.

Notes
Inagi's platforms occupy a 600-metre-radius curve, so the gap between the train and the platform edge is unusually wide; the city has been campaigning for years to upgrade local-only stops here to express stops.
