Kassell, et al. (2018) list Namata, Kupina, Kaiyam, Andambit, and Awarem as the villages where Nanubae is spoken.[4] In the Andai area, the Mongolo (or Meakambut, after one of their former villages) people, a group of about 50–60 people, live east of the Arafundi River; Kassell, et al. (2018) believe this may be a separate ethnolinguistic group.[4]

According to Ethnologue (22nd edition), it is spoken in Andambit (4.953147°S 143.586822°E / -4.953147; 143.586822 (Andimbit)), Awarem, Imboin (4.792407°S 143.661468°E / -4.792407; 143.661468 (Imboin)), Kaiyam (4.918344°S 143.528512°E / -4.918344; 143.528512 (Kaiyam)), Kupini (4.942655°S 143.581077°E / -4.942655; 143.581077 (Kupin)), and Namata mountain (4.860561°S 143.598304°E / -4.860561; 143.598304 (Namata)) villages in Imboin ward, Karawari Rural LLG, East Sepik Province.[5][6]
