The Brown family finally came back after getting through several mishaps, from Noah’s emergency gallbladder surgery to Gabe suffering from flu-like sickness. Most importantly, the matriarch of the family, Ami Brown, had been through a long battle against cancer.

After Ami was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer last spring, she underwent intense radiation and chemotherapy treatments at UCLA Medical Center. The Brown family had to relocate from their homestead in Alaska to a rented home in Southern California.

Amidst the rumors of the show’s cancellation, they announced they would film the eighth season in Seattle, Washington. Ami is in remission, so doctors have suggested they stay near civilization for easy access to medical centers.

Now, Billy Brown has stated that they will not be returning to Alaska and will be living on their 400-acre property in Washington, which is easily accessible. They started their new journey facing severe weather in unfamiliar surroundings, but the fans surely missed Browntown. Originally in Alaska, the Browntown has now been shifted to Colorado.
