Functions over time In the last decades there has been a tremendous impoverishment in terms of the amount of employement and facilities in the Afrikaanderwijk. Due to the automation of the moving out of the port there are little or no more dockworkers living in this area. Because of the growth of the scale of the supermarket chains, a lot of the smaller shops have dissapeard in this neighbourhood. Next to this global phenomena, the ongoing urban renewal in this area has contributed to the dissapearance of many businesses. Although the many garage doors reveal that the ground floors of the old blocks contained many garages, workshops and other small businesses, they have dissapeared since the urban renewal. There is hardly any industrial work in the district nowadays. Another cause for the diminishing of the retail in this neighbourhood is the decrease of the income levels of the neighbourhoods inhabitants over time. Due to the lower purchase power of the guest workers, which are now the socio-economic weakest groups, and the increasing homogeneity of the neighbourhoods residents, almost all existing of these weaker groups, the shops in the neighbourhood could not survive from the local clientele. Therefore a lot of the retail moved out of this neighourhood.
