Filoteia had 647 inhabitants in 1981.[3] In fieldwork done by Riki Van Boeschoten in late 1993, Filoteia was populated by Slavophones and a Greek population descended from Anatolian Greek refugees who arrived during the Greek-Turkish population exchange.[3] The Macedonian language was spoken by people over 60, mainly in private.[3] A mosque used to exist in the village, later destroyed.[4]
