Short horned grasshoppers have ears in the sides of the abdomen. Long-horned grasshoppers & crickets have ears in the knee-joints of their front legs.
Sounds to me like it'd be the length of their horns that is the difference.
The difference between a locust and a katydid is a locust is short horned grasshopper. A katydid is a long horned grasshopper, or what is known as just a grasshopper.
The scientific name of the Short-Horned Grasshopper is Melanoplus spp. It is part of the Orthoptera order and the Acrididea family.
An Acrididae family member with enlarged hind femurs, four-valved ovipositor, green- or strawberry-colored bodies, heavy, short antennae, plant-eating, three-segmented lower legs, and 0.1- to 4.3-inch- (5- to 11-centimeter-) sized bodies is a description of a short-horned grasshopper. The short-horned grasshopper, with over 10,000 species worldwide, hears by ears in the abdomen, unlike long-horned grasshoppers whose hearing is in the knee joints. The migratory, plague species receives the common name locust.
Sounds to me like it'd be the length of their horns that is the difference.
in the front legs

That depends on the kind of grasshopper. If you mean "Long-horned grasshoppers", what some people call "katydids", they are in slits near the joint that looks like the "knee" of the front leg. If you mean short-horned grasshoppers or 'Locusts", it is a larger "tympanum" or "eardrum" on each side of the base of the abdomen, the "belly" part of the insect.
