Badiraguato Municipality is subdivided in 15 sindicaturas:
The origin of the word Badiraguato is composed of the Cáhita-Tarascos terms: ba, "dira"; huato, a hybridism; whose roots are as follows: the Cáhita word ba, "water", "stream or river"; and the Tarascos root dira, "many", and huata or huato, hill; which literally means "stream of many hills", this can be interpreted, in a more concrete way, as "the stream of the mountains".
In pre-Hispanic times, the toponymy was applied to a stream because it accurately refers to the flow of Badiraguato (also known as Río Chico), which springs from the Sierra de Los Parra or Surutato and also gave its name to the town with signs established on its banks where it passes to join in the foothills of the mountain range in front of the disappeared town of Alicama.
The municipality of Badiraguato was created by decree published in the official newspaper of the state on April 8, 1915.
The coat of arms of Badiraguato was created by the painter Miguel Ángel Velázquez Tracy. It was declared the official coat of arms in 1978. The overall meaning is as follows: the red band that crosses the shield with footprints symbolizes the passage of the Nahua tribes through the land of Sinaloa.
The spread bronze eagle represents the Mexican homeland that covers and protects the shield of Sinaloa and therefore Badiraguato. The sky in its color represents the horizon expanded by Mexico. The flames are images of the liberating movements that culminated in the legal statutes of 1857 and 1917.
