Hum with life
If I say the streets are humming with life, does it mean that they are full of people?

Yes and no.
"The streets are humming with life" can also mean that there are a lot of birds, insects, or animals out and about. To be honest, a person could also use this expression if there is a lot of machinery in the streets as well.
