No it is in Canada.
The Horseshoe Falls, also known as the Canadian Falls, is a waterfall on the Niagara River, located on the Canadian side of the border with the United States. It is located between Terrapin Point on Goat Island in New York State, and Table Rock House in Ontario.
The name is derived from its curving, horseshoe-shaped crest that is 671 metres (2,200 ft) in width. At the centre of the Horseshoe Falls the water is about 3 metres (10 ft) deep. It passes over the crest at a speed of about 32 km/h (20 mph). The falls is 53 metres (173 ft) high, has an average crest elevation of 152 metres (500 ft) and faces northwards. The depth of the river at the base of the falls is actually higher than the falls itself, estimated at 56 metres (184 ft).
The Horseshoe Falls is considered to be the most impressive of the three falls that make up Niagara Falls. Approximately 90% of the water of the Niagara River flows over Horseshoe Falls, while the other 10% flows over the American Falls.

Nope. The Horseshoe Falls are completely in Canada. Definitely a good trip to make though.

Canadian! Yay to Canadians for having the prettier part of the falls....except I don't like tourists and thus living in Niagara Falls Canada is not usually a plus.

The Horseshoe Falls are also called The Canadian Falls. They are in Ontario, Canada. No part of them is in the US.
