This research investigates the livelihood resilience of migrant workers in the context of local urbanization, with a focus on enhancing their quality of life through a sustainable development plan. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines survival rationality with the theoretical framework of livelihood resilience, which is specifically tailored to address the unique issues faced by migratory workers. We created a comprehensive index system to quantify livelihood resilience, which was quantitatively measured using firsthand survey data processed with principal component analysis (PCA). The results show that the strength of migrant workers is highly dependent on their capacity to adjust to urban settings, where housing, social security, and stable employment all play critical roles. The research findings indicate that the adoption of focused sustainable development tactics that address these crucial elements can significantly enhance the capacity of migratory workers to support themselves, thereby fostering more comprehensive urban development regulations. Empirical data validate this method, demonstrating its applicability and efficacy in enhancing the living conditions of migratory workers
