Kerek used to be classified as a dialect of Chukchee, but it has idiosyncratic features suggesting, on the one hand, a non-Chukchee-Koryak (probably Eskimo-Aleut) substrate, and, on the other hand, transitionality towards Koryak; the superficial similarity of Kerek with Chukchee can also be due to secondary Chukchee areal influence on Kerek.

'There is no official data on the number of Kereks. In 1934 they numbered 90 (S. Stebnitsky). Since then "about a hundred" has been repeatedly quoted (for example, Soviet Estonian Encyclopedia, 1968, 1979), but no more exact data exists. "Not more than 70" is the estimate given by V. Avorin in 1966. '

"The Kereks make up a small linguistic enclave near the Gulf of Ugolnaya and Navarin Cape on the coast of the Bering Sea in northeastern Siberia. The administrative unit to which they belong is called the Bering District of the Chukchi Autonomous Territory which is part of the Magadan Region of the Russian Federation. Their habitat is the Artic region with its permafrost tundra and harsh climate. "
