Woodmore is an unincorporated area and census-designated place (CDP 86710) in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. Per the 2020 census, the population was 4,513. The CDP is located within the boundaries of Route 193 (Enterprise Road) to the west, Church Road to the east, Route 214 (Central Avenue) to the south and Route 50 to the north. Woodmore Road runs east and west through the center. It contains a large gated community and country club, developments of Woodmore Meadows, and Woodmore South on the south side, as well as various other custom built homes and farmland.

Off Enterprise Road sits the development of Kingsford. It is contiguous with Mitchellville, Maryland CDP, and historically had a Mitchellville mailing address, for many years served by the South Bowie/Mitchellville Post Office with zip code 20721 and has been considered part of Mitchellville. The Woodmore and Mitchellville community is notable as one of the most affluent predominantly African-American communities in the United States.

The gated community "Woodmore" is centered on the Country Club at Woodmore. The community is planned to consist of 398 single-family homes on 799 acres (3.2 km). Six Flags America is within the boundaries of the CDP.

The first colonial owner of the Woodmore site was Thomas Spriggs, who in 1698 acquired 500 acres (2.0 km) of what was then known as the forest of Prince George's County in the Crown Colony of Maryland.

The first house in the area was a two-story brick house named Pleasant Prospect (still standing at 12806 Woodmore Road)., built c. 1798 by Dr. Isaac Ducket, the husband of Spriggs' granddaughter. He also doubled the size of the estate to over 1,000 acres.

Pleasant Prospect was inherited by Ducket's son-in-law, John Contee, and then by his son, also John Contee, who became indebted and sold the estate to the Bowies, then the Washington D.C. lumber magnates the Walkers. Although the Walker family sold the house in 1982, Walker descendants also continued to own land and farm on the south side of Woodmore Road, part of which farmland was sold to create Woodmore Meadows.

Much of the land in Woodmore prior to the 1980s was owned by various farming families, the most prominent of which being the Walker family and the Shatenstein family, the latter of which owned large tracts of land along the northern and southern boundaries of Woodmore Road.

In 1977 a portion of the Shatenstein property located along the northern boundary of Woodmore Road, was purchased by the County to replace the former Prince George's Golf and Country Club, formerly located in Cheverly. The Country Club at Woodmore was designed and the gated community planned through a joint venture between the County and GolfAmerica, a process which took 15 years as the seven area homeowner associations eventually merged. In 1995, the residue of the Shatenstein estate on the southern boundary was sold to Winchester Homes, who developed the Woodmore South community. In 2010 the U.S. Census Bureau redefined northern parts of the Woodmore CDP as the new Fairwood CDP.

Woodmore is located at 38°56′5″N 76°46′42″W / 38.93472°N 76.77833°W / 38.93472; -76.77833 (38.934861, −76.778202).

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 6.6 square miles (17.1 km), of which 6.6 square miles (17.0 km) is land and 0.08 square miles (0.2 km), or 0.96%, is water.

The Woodmore gated community has about 400 houses, including single family and townhouses. About 33% of the residents of the gated community are members of the Country Club at Woodmore; the two are, as described by Keisha Stewart of The Washington Post, "intertwined". Stewart described the Woodmore gated community as "one of Prince George's County's premier subdivisions" that "represents prestige and accomplishment for some, while for others it is a serene haven."

In 2005 the range of residences was from $400,000 to $2 million, with townhouses cheaper than single family houses. According to Stewart, in 2005, "$1 million houses [were] not uncommon in Woodmore."
