For five different electron and hole systems in two dimensions (Si MOSFET's, p-GaAs, p-SiGe, n-GaAs and n-AlAs), the critical density, $n_c$ that marks the onset of strong localization is shown to be a single power-law function of the scattering rate $1/\tau$ deduced from the maximum mobility. The resulting curve defines the boundary separating a localized phase from a phase that exhibits metallic behavior. The critical density $n_c \to 0$ in the limit of infinite mobility.
