Just finished uploading/syncing Desktop and Documents files to iCloud Drive. In settings I kept enabled the item that says files will remain locally if enough space exists. Yet after performing the upload, the local desktop and documents folders disappear. So if the setting is set to keep files locally if possible, how do I view them?

The local copies (and also any without a local copy) are accessed by using Finder. They are in the iCloud section. You can access that via the Finder "Go" menu item. You can also add iCloud Drive to the Finder sidebar via Finder preferences. There is more information in Add your Desktop and Documents files to iCloud Drive - Apple Support
including the following:
In the Finder, you'll see your Desktop and Documents folder in the iCloud section of your sidebar.
