Vital Signs in a divided city

It's always interesting to be part of the team that reports for the Toronto Star around the Toronto Foundation's annual Vital Signs report. This year my main mission was to seek out residents from six corners of the city to find people who had vastly different experiences with transit, housing and employment depending on where they lived. In just 100 words each, I tried to provide snapshots illustrating that where one lives dramatically affects how one lives--and vice versa.

I really appreciated how candid some of the interviewees were about their life experiences. A seemingly simple question like, "Tell me about your commute," can reveal many personal challenges and triumphs.
 Where you live affects how you live.
