According to Holton (2003), "Outside of the regional center of Tobelo town, Tobelo is still learned as a first language and still spoken as the language of every-day communication. Indeed, in many villages school teachers who do not speak Tobelo are frustrated by the lack of fluency in Malay among school-age children. However, in Tobelo town itself the situation is rapidly changing.

Many Tobelo have emigrated and settled elsewhere on Halmahera and the surrounding islands. Hence, significant Tobelo populations are found on Morotai, Bacan, Obi and the Raja Ampat Islands.
