In 1983, 1,602 speakers were reported, including 442 non-residents. Language use was vigorous then. However, in November 1998, a tsunami almost completely annihilated the population in the disaster area and there were hardly any Warapu speaking survivors in that area, and almost the only Warapu speakers were those who were absent from the area, i.e. non-resident speakers living elsewhere. Their number may be a few hundred.
