"Silicon Valley is overcrowded. Venture capitalists are looking outside of the comfort zone"???

Sources, links, articles by industry people, venture capital firms- all appreciated. Again, thanks in advance. Was not aware of this "fact" and find it fascinating IMO? Interesting that nearly ever major VC firm, the who's who list of venture capital keeps an office, their main office in Silicon Valley - despite this "overcrowding"? Also, fascinating that every multy billion company of the past 10 yrs that I am aware of on a major U.S. exchange- still had major ties in one way or another to major players in "The valley" - Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram- go back a bit further and it's youtube, skype (who became a VC who's owner is now a VC investor in several more huge successes), paypal, etc

Guess they never got the memo about that "overcrowding" problem that's apparently going on?

Really never knew these amazing "facts"? Again, would love to read lots of articles, industry insider news via published writers, actual venture capitalists making these comments regarding it being "overcrowded" - would love to read all of them, if they exist of course?
