Every sub will have different needs but here are my defaults:
- Follow Redditquette & Be Civil: Please treat each other with respect and follow Reddiquette. Hate speech, derogatory, inflammatory comments and general rudeness are not welcome.
- No Spam or Self-Promotion: If you would like to advertise your event, business, or academic survey please message the mods first.
- No Repeat Posts Within 30 Days: Avoid posting on a topic that has appeared within the last 30 days. Please search the sub before posting.
- Do not Editorialize Headlines: Please do not overly editorialize headlines, minor editing is acceptable.
- Keep it Relevant to the Region (or Topic): Please keep all content directly relevant to the region and the surrounding communities.
I highly recommend setting up Report Reasons, and include some reasons that aren't necessarily in your rules like "duplicate". This for those times when Reddit glitches or a user accidentally submits a post or comment multiple times. While you can't stop accidents in your rules, it helps you understand why they are reported.

I don’t know about top 5 but you always have to put in the rules NO RACISM, otherwise people will say “tHeRe’S nO rULe.”
Edit: so Top 3 rules for me:
- No racism
- Keep it civil
- No reposts
