Prior to updating to v159.4.5870, my local Dropbox folder was in /Users/<username>/Dropbox; after updating, the folder was either moved or deleted...and can no longer be found.

Apple now requires the Dropbox folder to be located in your Library/CloudStorage folder.
Okay. I don't have a Library/CloudStorage folder. The folder does not exist.
I do not have a Library/CloudStorage folder. That folder does not exist on my Mac.

Could it be hidden? I'm not a Mac user so I can't really help further. I can only point you to the FAQ that I posted previously.
Take a look in your own Library folder, not the system one. Example: /Users/xyz/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox
In the Finder, hold down the Option key and click the "Go" menu on the top bar. When the option key is held down, the Library will appear in the list of folders and locations. Click on Library, and there you will find the "CloudStorage" folder where you can access the Dropbox folder directly, make an alias, whatever you need.
