Until the 1980s Chilcotin had been considered to be in a relatively healthy state, with many children acquiring it as their first language; in 1979 the language was estimated to have 1,725 speakers, a high percentage of the population. A survey conducted in 1988, however, showed that while a sizable proportion of Chilcotin children over 10 were speakers of the language, younger children spoke only English. Current estimates of the number of speakers range between 400 and 1,200, with the youngest in their mid-teens.
