국민 refers to a "citizen" or a "national" of a country. *For example, 매년 미국 국민들은 할로윈에 평균 $50이상을 소비한다. Every year, Americans (or American citizens) on average spend $50 or more on Halloween. 주민 refers to a "resident" or "tenant" in a neighborhood, apartment complex, etc. *Example: 아파트에 수리가 제대로 되지 않을때 주민들은 불만한다. When repairs are not done properly in the apartment complex, the tenants/residents complain. 시민 refers to a "resident" of a particular city. *Example: 뉴욕시민들은 새로 당선된 시장을 환영했다. New York residents welcomed their newly elected mayor. Hope this helps.
