Moving it does not seem possible. Dragging it to another location produces a copy, leaving the original folder at ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox.

1. Thanks!
2. What a bummer that the folder can't be moved. I assume the copy won't sync. Total bummer.
3. The filepath works, but I can't view CloudStorage in Finder even when showing hidden files. Is there a way to view CloudStorage/Dropbox in Finder?

1. Thanks to you too.
2. You are correct. The copy is just another folder with no connection to Dropbox.
3. Yes, the Dropbox folder can be accessed. If your ~/Library is hidden, select the Go menu in the Finder. Hold down option and your user Library will appear. You should then see CloudStorage within the Library folder, and Dropbox within CloudStorage.
