Abstract: To achieve a prosperous village community by utilizing all the potential and resources they have, village development needs to be carried out in a planned and sustainable manner by the village government and the community. This research aims to analyze alternative community-based village development strategies, and formulate the best strategies and programs for community-based village development. The data analysis method used is multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA). The location of this research is Parentas Village and Cidugaleun Village, Indonesia. The results showed that the utilization of the five development capitals at the research site could not be utilized optimally. This is influenced by the poor state of infrastructure, which causes an increase in farm production costs and reduces the price of produce at harvest. From the results of the analysis, there are also five main strategic factors that influence community-based village development: the culture of mutual assistance, community dependence on assistance, private investment, availability of technology, and outside parties that can trigger conflicts between communities. From the results of the analysis, the best conclusion in the strategy that can be applied is to use alternative V in the form of maximizing government programs in infrastructure development by involving the community. Based on the results of the analysis, it is expected to be an alternative and strategy for the government in the development of community-based villages.
