"In real life," 70% of them arrive Catholic. How many of the ones that a person has met, who are Catholic, may differ regionally or neighborhood by neighborhood.

Your Mexicans May Vary.

Pretty much what I said, but on your numbers you confused the percentage of foreign born Hispanics currently being Catholic in the United States, with what percentage they were on the day they left Mexico, when about 94% of them had been baptized Catholic.

I have yet to meet a single first generation immigrant from Mexico is Catholic.

As post 52 pointed out, that is "an unusual experience",to go farther, it is extraordinary, fantastically hard to believe, assuming one meets a few first generation Mexican immigrants at all.
