Don't know if this will aid you at all, but you might look at the old South Texas towns. The Center for Archaeological Research, University of Texas at San Antonio published a report on the city of Roma that has been designated for restoration work. A more inclusive report is still pending.

Subject: Early 20th Century Mexican-American Sites
Greetings histarchers,
I am performing archaeological work on a "section house" in Los Angeles,
California, built by the Pacific Electric Railway Corporation to house
Mexican-American families and employees in the early 1900s (my site was
occupied from 1906 through 1936). I am writing to see if anyone knows of
archaeological reports that look at Mexican households in the West during
this time period.
Thank you for your help in advance,
Stacey Camp

Hi Stacey,
A few years ago I had the opportunity to document a station on what is =
now an abandoned portion of the original (1878-1880) Souhtern Pacific's =
transcontinental route through southern Arizona. This was Esmond =
Station (originally Papapago Station, a few miles southeast of Tucson). =
I documented the adobe building housing the Hispanic railroad workers, =
as well as the frame housing for the Anglo-American supervisory =
personnel, to HABS standards (=BC' to 1'), modified to 11" by 17". I =
believe that I've got a digital version of the report text (in Word), =
but the drawings were done traditionally (by hand, ink on mylar). If =
you wish, I can email you the text and send you copies of the drawings =
by post. Please advise me accordingly, by email to my office address, =
