RESIDENCE
The residence of Tokre Koli tribe people is in outskirt of the village. Usually they stay in slopes of hills or in forest areas.

The residence of these people are kutcha, which are made from Bamboos, clay etc. They are small in size. At some of the places, the tribal Tokre Kolis stay away from main stream of population and have small houses built for them in remote outskirt.

During last few years, in some of the areas, some pucca houses are constructed and alloted to them under Tribal Area sub Plan- TASP.

Younger generation male persons put on shirt and pent. The younger women put on petty coat, blouse, saree, a shawl or a colourful piece of cloth used to cover head.

EDUCATION
The level of education is very low among Tokre Koli tribals. Parents don’t care about education of their children. Usually children of Tokre Koli people take school education upto std. IV in a nearby school. The tribe being economically very poor, often the people have to move out in search of labour work. Therefore the education is neglected; and it remains at low level. As per Land and People (S.C. Bhatt - 2005) rate of Literacy in this tribe was 38.26% in 2001. Now under this survey under report the numbers of educated Tokre Koli people are 12,133 and the numbers of illiterate people are 23,957.
