San Ignacio Cohuirimpo is a small town and comisaría in the Navojoa municipality, in the Mexican state of Sonora. It is the most important comisaría in Navojoa City and the biggest, too. San Ignacio was one of the main areas where the "Mayos", the indigenous people of Navojoa, could be found. At present, it can be considered a part of the metropolitan area, as it has grown urbanely thanks to the work of the municipal government of Navojoa.

During the April 8th eclipse in 2024, San Ignacio Cohuirimpo had 88% coverage.[1]
