I'm pretty sure programmers age out of Silicon Valley due to the culture. I know a couple who are 50+ who ended up moving to the Midwest & East Coast because they simply couldn't find anyone willing to hire them in Silicon Valley but could get offers in the Midwest & East Coast still with relocation. If you look at the sources for age data for Silicon Valley "gems" [e.g. Google, Facebook] they are all below the median.
