Because it is not formally incorporated, it has no official boundaries, but the United States Census Bureau has defined a census-designated place (CDP) consisting of Peppermill Village and the adjacent community of Carmody Hills, for statistical purposes.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Peppermill Village had a total area of 0.73 square miles (1.9 km2), all land.

The CDP is served by the Prince George's County Public Schools district.
