From earlier message:

if 'aging' in content:
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.
