Do the Alaskan bush people really live in the woods?

Yes, the Brown family from "Alaskan Bush People" primarily lives in remote areas of Alaska and has built homes in the wilderness. While they do embrace a lifestyle that includes living off the land, the show has faced criticism regarding the authenticity of their portrayal, with some suggesting that certain aspects may be dramatized or staged for television. Overall, they do spend significant time in the woods, but the extent of their self-sufficiency can vary.
