Because in 1929, the Wall St Crash occurred, leaving people penniless, and some people even committed suicide because they lost all their savings to the hyperinflation.
Ranch workers like George and Lennie had to leave their families behind to go out and work and send money home to help people survive, but they earned very little, and most ranchers travelled alone, carrying their belongings on their backs.
People rarely made friends, because relationships were hard to maintain; you'd spend one month on a ranch, and move onto another.
The work was always manual labour on a ranch, so if you weren't strong enough then you were no good to the ranch and you'd be fired, making it difficult to maintain a placement in the job, which is why George has Lennie as a companion because he can guarantee work for George.
