I’m sorry but if she’s specifically wanting Mexican families then she will be in for a culture shock. Don’t get me wrong there are Mexicans here but it’s not like how it is in California or other border states. The majority of Hispanic people here are Dominican and Puerto Rican, also Guatemalans.
All that being said South providence or around chalkstone Ave might be staring points for you. But either way be in for some major culture shock either way. We are on opposite sides of the country. I don’t say this in any mean way of course but you need to manage your expectations.
For reference I’m Hispanic (Dominican and Costa Rican) and those are some spots I lived in. Chalkstone (or parts of it) I think might be nice than the south side.

Thanks for this. Yeah, I figured this would be the case but wanted to check in to be sure. I grew up in western mass so I've spent a little time in PVD but not enough to get an understanding of the neighborhoods. Very helpful!
