There is no such thing as being a cirizen of a state; you can only be a citizen of a country. You are a resident of Missouri the day you take up residency.

If you are a US citizen and you move to Missouri, establish a residence and get a driver's license, you would be considered a resident of the state. If you are asking for voting purposes, you will be glad to know there is:
No durational residency requirement. Must be registered by the fourth Wednesday prior to election.

depends on what you mean by "citizen"
once you move there and 'declare your intent' by getting a drivers license or buying/renting a home in your name, you are a citizen for tax purposes. you MUST get your drivers license and car plates changed within 6 months of moving to the state to avoid fines and penalties.
but for some legal purposes, you must have lived here for at least 120 days.

You are a citizen of a country, you are the resident of a state when you get a mailing address in that state.

All the states have a six month time limit. I only know this because that's how long you have to apply for a new voter's registration card if you move out of state.
