Low income = less ability to do anything in life, including not getting married. Higher income = more opportunities to do things in life, including getting married.

This seems pretty obvious. Young men in low income situations are probably worried about where they'll sleep, and whether they'll eat or not. Who has time to think about dating or marriage when you're going through that??

Human connection is a need just as strong as hunger or rest, like it'a almost an accepted medical issue that loneliness causes early death. If anything, having such a low rate of marriage only further harms the low income group more than it would higher income groups
