By "average age of marriage" do you mean how long the marriage lasts?
Or do you mean mean the "average age AT marriage," meaning how old the
bride and groom were when they got married?

Hello fluboy-ga,

The average age of marriage is readily available but finding
information for how this has changed "across different socio-economic
classes" is much tougher. This prior question may help you reframe
your question. Thanks.
