 From earlier message:

So your data is a list of strings, each representing one line of the 
file.  When you run this, you'll get something like:

NameError: name 'file_content' is not defined

If I assume you've just neglected to include the assignment, 
file_content = data, then the next problem is

          if 'aging' in content:

will never fire.  Likewise
         if 'highway' in content:

will never fire.  So the rest of the code is irrelevant.
