Rural Revitalization (RR) is a key national strategy in China aimed at sustainable rural development and has gained significant attention. Given the unique characteristics of different villages, understanding differentiated paths to achieve RR essential. This study introduces new "5I Framework" (INDUS-INHAB-INDOC-INFRA-INCOM) assess RR's overall status (ODS) paths. Then, using western as case, this employs entropy weight, technique for order preference by similarity an ideal solution (TOPSIS), fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), hierarchical clustering categorize into "4L Category" (Lots-Learning-Labor-Living). Context-specific recommendations are provided each category. "5I" "4L" derived from their initial letters easier recall global dissemination. Our findings reveal ODS's temporal fluctuations between Acceptable Good Grades (0.3 0.6), with Chongqing's villages showing downward trend (from 0.439 0.407); also spatial differences ODS, northern generally score higher due distinct characteristics. Seven identified, highlighting varying dimensions essential success: INFRA crucial across all high ODS paths, while INHAB INDOC not always central. Besides, these grouped four clusters via clustering, indicating that can be achieved integrating "lots" aspects, enhancing "learning" cultural among residents, requiring villagers' "labor" support agriculture, or improving "living" environment. The clustered categories enhance applicability our proposed countermeasures similar contexts. facilitates theoretical evaluation RR, underpinned promotes effective implementation practices—both representing innovations study.
