A vertical transistor device includes a line of active area adjacent a line of dielectric isolation. A buried data/sense line obliquely angles relative to the line of active area and the line of dielectric isolation. A pair of gate lines is outward of the buried data/sense line and obliquely angle relative to the line of active area and the line of dielectric isolation. A vertical transistor channel region is within the active area between the pair of gate lines. An outer source/drain region is in the active area above the channel region and an inner source/drain region is in the active area below the channel region. The inner source/drain region is electrically coupled to the buried data/sense line. Other devices and structures are contemplated, as are methods of forming a plurality of vertical transistor devices.
