Munchkin has some good points. Even if it doesn't seem like you have family, you really do...and they're closer here than they would be if you were living in Mexico. What if something happened and you needed help?

If I were you, I would finish next semester and spend the summer in Mexico in your boyfriend's hometown. You need to see what the place is like, how you fit in, etc. before you move down there sight unseen. I was sort of in your position once, and I'm glad I saw my SO's town that we'd be living in before I decided because it can get pretty dangerous there and seeing it firsthand made me wary of going there permanently. It sounds awful, but you need to take care of yourself first and do what's best for you. If you end up loving Mexico, then hey, go right ahead! If you don't, at least you'll know before all your stuff is down there and you're stuck. Everybody's made some very good points; this is a big decision, so don't rush into anything.
