Thompson venture capital report Q1 2007
This is an interesting comparison - The entire State of Washington had just over half the VC investment in Q1 2007 as San Diego County alone...

Washington received $365M out of $7.1B VC funding in Q1. That's about 5% of the total - probably better than Arkansas, but still pretty low.
Here's a table showing regional distributions. Silicon Valley of course tops the chart with $2.165B - roughly 6 times the VC investment in all of Washington.
