On the “friends’ wives” thing, that might’ve been a particularly LA thing. Even before the whole ‘70s thing, which was bigger there than anywhere the LA elite was kind of cutting edge in that regards. But then that’s an elite thing in general (the LA elite/literati is also where LSD first got big, back in the '50s).
The “swinging lifestyle” started among Army Air Force pilots in 1940s Southern California, and is still overrepresented in areas that were near major airbases. (This also has to do with the historical association of airline pilots - who were mostly Air Force-trained - with nonmonogamy, though I’m sure spending a lot of nights away from home and a lot of days around young single stewardesses selected for their attractive charm didn’t hurt.)
