I hear ya. Well, if you want to take in some Latino culture Park Street is the place to be. Tons of restaurants and shops. Oh, and yes there is bus service to get around. Sorry, I forgot to mention that earlier and it's reliable.
Here's a link for the city's bus system if it helps:

Enjoy,

If you are looking for a Latino community, Parkville or Frog Hollow in Hartford may be what you are looking for. Just remember that these areas are very dangerous, especially at night, partly because Hartford is one of the poorest cities in the country. Don't be fooled by someone saying that Frog Hollow isn't dangerous because it is.

If he is already used to Puerto Rician neighborhoods, I assume he understand the level of danger associated with them

Puerto Rican Parade 2010 HARTFORD, CT (4D Cal/Unified Blocks Edition) - YouTube


Puerto Rican Day Parade 2011 - YouTube

As you noted there are also other Latino countries moving in there. Lots of Mexican, El Salvadorian and to a lessor extent Brazilian there now as well.
