The median is the middle number in a list when the numbers are arranged in ascending order.
In this case, when the numbers are arranged in ascending order, we have:
1, 2, 3, 6, 7
Since there are 5 numbers in the list, the median is the middle number, which is 3.
Therefore, the median of the numbers of fire hydrants on each street is 3.
