Under today's high-quality development context, the sustainability of engineering projects is becoming more and more important, the renovation sustainability of old residential communities in the same engineering field will also attract much attention. In this paper, northern Hebei is taken as an example, from the perspective of society, such three characteristics as sustainable development, coordination and sustainability are taken as the dimensions of the first-level indicators to show the renovation sustainability of old residential communities, and the AHP-EWM combination weighting method is used to calculate the weights of evaluation indicators at all levels under scientific, systematic and reasonable index screening, and then 10 second-level indicators and 28 third-level indicators are constructed as the infrastructure based on the sustainability evaluation index system on renovation of old residential communities in northern Hebei with high-quality development. The results can provide some references for promoting the improvement of the sustainability level on renovation of old residential communities in northern Hebei.
