No, it is located in their thorax just below the head. But it does seem that way because their exoskeleton covers its short thorax so it looks like it only has two parts, the head and the tail.

No, it isn't. The heart is in the pereion (thorax). Note that shrimp's cephalon (head) and pereion are both covered by a unique "shell" called carapace.

Where is a shrimps heart located?

A shrimps heart is located on its head. If we base it on the exact anatomy of a shrimp, its heart is located on its thorax just after the head, but both the head and the thorax are covered with a single exoskeleton only, that is why the shrimps thorax can be mistaken as still part of the shrimps head. But in general, we see a shrimp divided only into 2 parts, the head and the tail, we see no thorax in it.
