The outermost shell of an electron is called the valence shell. This shell may or may not have electrons.

The valence shell is a part of the electron cloud.

So your answer is

Yes, the valence electrons are located in the electron cloud.

View page

A valence electron, or valence electrons, are found in all of the elements. A valence electron is an electron located on the out most shell of an element (the valence shell). Most elements will have more than one valence electron. Oxygen, or O, has six valence electrons because its outer shell consists of six electrons.
