Yes and No.

The homestead act provided 160 acres of land for free to any Americans through federal lands, provided that they stayed on the land and cultivated the are for ~5 years.

Today however, there is no land for us to explore in the US, and the Homestead Act has long since been nulled.

hope this helps
