There are a ton of developers outside of Silicon Valley. I'm sure there have already been plenty of studies done focusing on the Bay Area specifically if that's all you care about, but a nationwide survey is helpful for indicating the state of the industry at large, including non-tech hubs where VC funding is not nearly as available. For a nationwide survey, I have to say these median salaries are actually pretty high. Very, very few careers requiring only a bachelor's degree can boast these numbers taken across the country.
