This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Providence through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 112 with a margin of error of plus or minus 58, which is 51.8 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Is Providence in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Providence appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Providence, town of, community 010159, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.

No, and they are labeled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Providence.
Is zoning published for Providence?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
